Go Language: Multi line strings

You can write multi line strings by placing the string in backticks operator.

Example

    msg := `Hello

    World,

    How

    Are

    You`

    fmt.Println(msg)

App.go

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
    msg := `Hello
    World,
    How
    Are
    You`

    fmt.Println(msg)
}

Output

Hello

        World,

        How

        Are

        You

Backticks will not interpret escape characters

App.go

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
    msg := `Hello
    \n World,
    \t How
    \a Are
    You`

    fmt.Println(msg)
}

aOutput

Hello

        \n World,

        \t How

        \a Are

        You

If you want to preserve escape sequences, you can use ‘+’ operator.

    msg := "Hello " +

        "\n World" +

        "\t How" +

        "\a Are" +

        "You"

App.go

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
    msg := "Hello " +
        "\n World" +
        "\t How" +
        "\a Are" +
        "You"

    fmt.Println(msg)
}

Output

Hello

  World   How AreYou
