Heredoc strings in C#

Question

Is there a heredoc notation for strings in C#, preferably one where I don\'t have to escape anything (including double quotes, which are a quirk in verbatim strings

Answer 1

No, there is no "HEREDOC" style string literal in C#.

C# has only two types of string literals:

• Regular literal, with many escape sequences necessary
• Verbatim literal, @-quoted: doublequotes need to be escaped by doubling

  String literals are of type string and can be written in two forms, quoted and @-quoted.
