Take a closer look at the instructions.

FirstLinenewlinetabbackslashSecondLinenewlineThirdLine

you have the first new line correct. You need to give a new tab after that and a backslash.

After “SecondLine”, you just need new line before “ThirdLine”

To explain by example:

Code:

'string\nstring'

Result:

string
string

Code:

'string\tstring'

Result:

string    string

Code:

'string\\string'

Result:

string\string

Code:

'string\n\t\\string'

Result:

string
string    \

I think you should be able to understand the rest by that :slight_smile:
