Escape in PHP

Example 1: Using Escape Slash

This is an example of using "escape slash".

Example 2: Without Escape Slash

This will cause an error if double quotes are not escaped.

Explanation

The escape slash, or backslash (`\`), is used in PHP to include special characters, such as quotes, within a string. Without the escape character, PHP would misinterpret these quotes as the end of the string, causing errors in the code.
