echo '\nTEXT' - parse the \n?

[Anon]

If I have the line of code

<code>
echo '\n some text';
</code>

will it parse the \n? I know that if I have

<code>
echo '$var';
</code>

it won't parse the $var. But will it parse \n,\r,\t, etc.?

echo '\n'; # the user will see \n
echo "\n"; # the user will see a new line

to answer your question, no it shouldn't be parsed
