# Escape Sequences

You can use the backslash character (\\) to escape characters in column names and string values in a predicate expression.

You can use the \\’ escape sequence to escape a single quote in a column name. For example:

```
‘Team\’s Name’ == "West Region Accounts"
```

You can use the following escape sequences for special characters in string values.

 
| Sequence | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| \\b | One backspace character |
| \\n | New line |
| \\r | Carriage return |
| \\t | Tab |
| \\Z | CTRL+Z (ASCII 26) |
| \\” | One double-quote character |
| \\\\ | One backslash character |
| \\0 | One ASCII null character |
