Resolved: \ syntax (\"%s\")

You never really said anything about the "backslash" syntax with the modulus operator.  Is there somewhere else that I was supposed to have picked that up?  I don't really understand its rationale.

Hi Jude,

It's surprising to me this wasn't covered in Intro to Python. Apologies for any confusion. I know for sure that the "backslash" was covere extensively in this lesson:

Best,

Thanks!  I am now taking the Bootcamp, and I do see where that is called the escape character.  I understand it completely now.  I just don't think that was mentioned prior to that point in the Intro to Python and the Intermediate Course (up to that point, anyways).
