Escape sequences are combinations of characters that have meanings other than their literal representation. An escape sequence in C++ starts with a backslash and is followed by a character that indicates the escape sequence. Common escape sequences include \n for newline, \t for tab, \r for carriage return, and \a to beep. Escape sequences are often used within strings.
