##### Byte string literals ##### Byte string literals
A _byte string literal_ is a sequence of ASCII characters and _escapes_ A non-raw _byte string literal_ is a sequence of ASCII characters and _escapes_,
enclosed within two `U+0022` (double-quote) characters, with the exception of preceded by the characters `U+0062` (`b`) and `U+0022` (double-quote), and
`U+0022` itself, which must be _escaped_ by a preceding `U+005C` character followed by the character `U+0022`. If the character `U+0022` is present within

below. A byte string literal is equivalent to a `&'static [u8]` borrowed array
of unsigned 8-bit integers.
Some additional _escapes_ are available in either byte or non-raw byte string Some additional _escapes_ are available in either byte or non-raw byte string
