It's me again, for some more basic questionings again.

Very basic question, I know because other people are talking about how to implement friction XD

So, do you guys know how to do it? Thanks in advance.

(It's for a textual header for a Summtive/Culminating Activity Project that is due on Monday.)

I remember having to do that before, i just used ASCII values to print the "\" out. The "/" can be outputted manually.

System.out.println("/\\"); will output what you want.

The backslash is the escape character in java. Go here to see more of its uses.
