The backslash "\" character is used to escape characters that otherwise have a special meaning. There are various meanings of it such as newline, backslash itself, or the quote character. 

You can compare it using a simple if statement. For example, refer to the following code - 

if data.value[0] in ('/', '\\'):
    my_func()
