    You need to escape backslashes, or use the @ literal modifier. The backslash is used to do things like specifying a newline "n", so the compiler needs to be told explicitly when it write it out verbatim

    This uses a multiline string literal

    string p = @"
   / 
  /   
 /     
/______ 
";
Console.WriteLine(p);

    This is a full list of characters that require the escape sequence to ensure they are written verbatim

    You should escape the backslashes, try this:

    Console.WriteLine("   /\    ");
Console.WriteLine("  /  \   ");
Console.WriteLine(" /    \  ");
Console.WriteLine("/______\ ");
