Can anyone explain what we should prefer "\n" or '\n' for adding a newline character or both are actually the same thing?

    According to what i gathered from the stack overflow thread you can do the following two

    1.> while adding a new line after any numerical datatype use '\n'. example : cout << "age = " << age << '\n'; // more efficient than cout << "age = " << age << "\n";

    2.> If adding a newline after printing a string you can do cout<<"checkoutput \n";
