How do you type a backslash if it is not on the keyboard?

I was doing a lesson on strings and it required me to input a backslash, but the keyboard on my phone does not have it.

What phone are you using? We might be able to help you navigate to the backslash key, Most phone keyboards (iOS, Android) are well-equipped with backslash.

It might be some where (\ is a popular character). If not, May be have some error with your keyboard. Just simply install another keyboard in the app store!
