Answer
Exam answer
A picture is worth "A thousand words."
Explanation
Two escape sequences are at work. \t inserts a horizontal tab, so a gap appears at that point in the output. \" prints a literal double quotation mark. The backslash removes the special meaning the quote would otherwise have of ending the string — without it the statement would not compile at all. So everything is printed as written, with a tab after "worth" and real quotation marks around A thousand words. Learn the set: \n newline, \t tab, \\ backslash, \" double quote, \' single quote.
