i am here with a new query

i used the \b - backspace character statement in my java code and found that it
did not perform as expected

class Temp

{

public static void main(String[] args)

{

System.out.println("Temp\b");

}

}

------------------

i expected the backspace character to delete the last letter in Temp and the
expected result was " meghn "

but the result mister java gave me was "Temp"



i tried again with the backspace character in a different posistion



class Temp

{

public static void main(String[] args)

{

System.out.println("Te\bmp");

}

}


and the result was "Tebmp" which was the expected result.


now why does java not delete the last character when backspace is used in the
end ????

thanks a lot for continued support
