| Utf8("Hello, ") || Utf8("DataFusion!") |
+----------------------------------------+
| Hello, DataFusion!                     |
+----------------------------------------+

(op_arr_contains)=

### `@>`

Array Contains

```sql
> SELECT make_array(1,2,3) @> make_array(1,3);
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| make_array(Int64(1),Int64(2),Int64(3)) @> make_array(Int64(1),Int64(3)) |
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| true                                                                    |

+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
```

## Literals

Use single quotes for literal values. For example, the string `foo bar` is
referred to using `'foo bar'`

```sql
select 'foo';
```

### Escaping

Unlike many other languages, SQL literals do not by default support C-style escape
sequences such as `\n` for newline. Instead all characters in a `'` string are treated
literally.

To escape `'` in SQL literals, use `''`:

```sql
> select 'it''s escaped';
+----------------------+
| Utf8("it's escaped") |
+----------------------+
| it's escaped         |
+----------------------+
1 row(s) fetched.
```

Strings such as `foo\nbar` mean `\` followed by `n` (not newline):

```sql
> select 'foo\nbar';
+------------------+
| Utf8("foo\nbar") |
+------------------+
| foo\nbar         |
+------------------+
1 row(s) fetched.
Elapsed 0.005 seconds.
```

To add escaped characters such as newline or tab, instead of `\n` you use the
`E` style strings. For example, to add the text with a newline

```text
foo
bar
```

You can use `E'foo\nbar'`

```sql
> select E'foo\nbar';
+-----------------+
| Utf8("foo
bar") |
+-----------------+
| foo
bar         |
+-----------------+
```
