Hi Sibnarayan,
The word "\indent" is six characters (looks like 7) and starts with the
single character "\i".
julia> length("\indent")
6
If you want your word to start with a backslash, you need to "escape" the
backslash character like this "\\indent"
julia> println("\\indent")
\indent
julia> length("\\indent")
7
IF this is what you want, you can test that the word starts with a
backslash with this:
julia> ismatch(r"^\\","\\indent")
true
Hope this helps :)
