c语言中的字符初始化

Question

I want to assign ' to a character but it keeps giving me error any help?

    void main()
    {
        char c  = ''';
    }

Answer 1

Special characters like ' or \\ must be escaped with a backslash in these situations. In this particular case you got an error because the compiler thinks you opened and closed a null character with the first two '' and then opened another character without closing it with the third one.

Answer 2

\\' represents Single quotation mark in C

It is a standard escape sequence

Every time you want to assign ' , just need to assign \\'

Answer 3

Use escape sequence:

char c  = '\'';

Also, a double quotation mark is written as '\\"' in C.

PS: No void main() , it should be int main(void) .
