Question: The meaning of \%1

Hello those who attends Mapleprimes,

 

I have a question.

A programme was written in a text:

 

n:=5

if n=0 then

0

elif n=1 then

 1/2

elif n=2 then

  sqrt(2)/2

elif n=3 then

  sqrt(3)/2

else error "bad argument: \%1", n;

end if; 

 

The answer of this programme was 

 error bad argument.

 

What I couldn't understand was the meaning of \%1

Could you tell me about it to me?

 

Thanks in advance.
