Program or Solution

				
				
					
class Program
{
	public static void main(String args[])
	{
                // Escape Sequences
		// \b back space deletes the previous character	
		System.out.printf("Hello\b World\n");
 		
        
                // \n New line moves cursor to new line before printing World
		System.out.printf("Hello\nWorld\n");
		
    
                // \t tab space leaves a tab space before World
		System.out.printf("Hello\t World\n"); 
		
		// \r Carriage Return Moves cursor to starting position in the same line so Devil will be Over Written
		System.out.printf("Hello World \rDevil\n"); 
		
		// \" prints double Quotes
		System.out.printf("\"Decode School\"\n");

		// \\ Prints slash, so a\b 
		System.out.printf("a\\b\n");
                
                // Format Specifiers
		// .2f   two digit precision in floating point numbers 
		System.out.printf("%.2f\n",10/3.0); 
		
		// %x hexa representation (a for 10)
		System.out.printf("%x\n",10); 
		
		// %o Octal representation (12 for 10)
		System.out.printf("%o\n",10); 
		
		// %b Boolean representation
		System.out.printf("%b\n",10); 
		
		
	}
