Set @ sign as a string attribute in android.

Question

I'm using the @ sign in a project and want to set its text value to a string resource. However android studio complains if i do this. <string name="atsign">@</string>. What is the best way to set the @ sign as a string attribute?

<string name="atsign">@</string> works fine although AS is complaining — user8959091
