public class ReplaceSpecialChars {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String input = "The!quick@brown#fox$jumps%^over*_the+\\lazy=dog.";
        String pattern = "[!@#$%^*_+=\\\\]"; 
        String replacement = " ";

        // Perform regex replacement
        String result = input.replaceAll(pattern, replacement);

        System.out.println("Original: " + input);
        System.out.println("Modified: " + result);
    }
}
