[Dev-C++] symbol unsure

[Patel, N. M <Nil...@qu...>]

Just wondering does anyone know what this syntax would be used for:

Example:

start =3D  "\002";
=66inish =3D  "\026";

I know that it might be a repeat delimiter (\) but now sure how it is used.=
 =
Tried looking online for some help but very vague references.=20

Thanks.
