How many characters are in \ n JAVA?

Question

just a quick question.

I wonder how many characters are specified in \ n (new line) in JAVA?

Because I need to set 160 characters on one line, etc.

So .. How many characters should I consider for \ n when adding to my StringBuffer?

thanks

Answer 1

'\n' is itself a single character if it is represented inside Java, but when interacting with external systems, it can be represented anywhere between 1 and 8 bytes. Some systems and protocols are a new line with \r\n , which is 2 characters long. And encoding matters, as this can lead to the fact that each character will use 1, 2 or 4 bytes.

Without additional information about which system or protocol the characters will be sent to it, it is impossible to give a completely accurate answer.

Answer 2

1 character.

 String str = "qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqq\n"; System.out.println(str.length()); ; String str = "qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqq\n"; System.out.println(str.length());

Answer 3

'\ n' is just one character.

Answer 4

\ n must be only one character.

Answer 5

The System.getProperty("line.separator") property System.getProperty("line.separator") is the system line of the new line. It can be one or two characters. \n is a line character (single), which may match a new line, but it depends on the platform.

Answer 6

\n in java matches only one character. If you need to check if this code can help.

 String str = "\n"; char[] test = str.toCharArray(); System.out.println(test.length); 

Answer 7

'\ n,' \ r ',' \ t ',' \ 0 'all of them are one character both in java, and in c / C ++ and other languages.
