Call a Quote as String

[DanielDeChamps]

Hello!

I would like to call a quote symbol as a string, nevertheless looks like the code is wrong for the compiler. Could someone show me my mistake? Below follow my code:

 std::string double_quote= " " ";

Hello DanielDeChamps,

A single double quote needs to be escaped to be considered a single quote.

Try this std::string double_quote= " \" ";.

oooh yes! Therefore It is similar to \n to jump lines. Thank you so much.
