[C++]How to dynamically create an escape sequence?

beginners
#1

Hi, I’m trying to make a program that can dynamically form an escape sequence character.
Please take a look at my code below.

void ofApp::keyPressed(int key){

    string escapeSeq;
    escapeSeq.push_back('\\');
    escapeSeq.push_back((char)key);
    
    string text = "Hello" + escapeSeq + "World";
    cout << text << endl;
}

For example, If I press ‘n’ key, I’m expecting it to print out

Hello
World

But it actually prints out

Hello\nWorld

How can I make the program work? Thanks in advance!
