The visual representation of other nongraphic characters is possible by escape sequences.

 

The rules for the use of hexadecimal numbers are modified a little in contrast to the use in general character strings. Only two hexadecimal numbers are interpreted as a characters if they aren't parenthesized.

 

 

\xdd                A hexadecimal escape sequence - matches the single character whose code point is 0xdd

\x{dddd}        A hexadecimal escape sequence - matches the single character whose code point is 0xdddd.

 

\N{Name}        Matches the single character which has the symbolic name name. For example \N{newline} matches the single character \n.
