Answer 1

First, that is called backslash.

\ backslash
/ slash

Slash ( / ) is used for division operator.

Backslash ( \ ) is used for escape sequence or characters. Here is an example of using backslash for escape sequence:

\n --> new line
" First Line \nSecond Line"

>> First line
Second Line

Answer 2

You can search on Google u will understood much better. In c cpp java........languages this symbol \ work as a separator if u want to print double quotes then u have to use this backslash if u will write \n then this will change the line n denoting for new line \t for tab .
/ This symbol forward representing nothing it will print as it as . You asking unnecessary Questions on thread there is no word front slash ( \ ) in c ,cpp and java .
