You can use r to make \n lose its special meaning.

print(r'aÀXysc \n§Ä tIÄ¡p¶ntÃ')
# aÀXysc \n§Ä tIÄ¡p¶ntÃ

You can simply scape \ by using \\

>> print('aÀXysc \\n§Ä tIÄ¡p¶ntÃ')
aÀXysc \n§Ä tIÄ¡p¶ntÃ

or you can use a raw string by prepending an r to the string

>> print(r'aÀXysc \n§Ä tIÄ¡p¶ntÃ')
aÀXysc \n§Ä tIÄ¡p¶ntÃ

You can use the repr function to get the string representation of the value:

>>> print(repr('aÀXysc \n§Ä tIÄ¡p¶ntÃ'))
'aÀXysc \n§Ä tIÄ¡p¶ntÃ'

You can print it as a raw string by prefixing it with r.

>>> print(r'aÀXysc \n§Ä tIÄ¡p¶ntÃ')
aÀXysc \n§Ä tIÄ¡p¶ntÃ

Two ways:

First Method: You can try use the repr function like so:

my_string = 'aÀXysc \n§Ä tIÄ¡p¶ntÃ'
print(repr(my_string))

Second Method: Use the double \ back lash, like so:

my_string = 'aÀXysc \\n§Ä tIÄ¡p¶ntÃ'
print(my_string)

Output:

aÀXysc \n§Ä tIÄ¡p¶ntÃ
