Yes, that's the parser. But the result of parsing will be the same:
The string will end in a literal backslash.

  Functional reqs lay out what your system's got to do, while
  non-functional reqs are all about time and other resource
  constraints.

  When you're crunching through parsing, what pops out is
  your functional bread and butter.

  But the time it takes to chew through that data?
  That's non-functional and implementation-dependent territory.

  So, we can say they're functionally equivalent.
