You are mistaken and you are misquoting.  The text says:

  We split each long line into two lines using backslash/newline;
  this is like using one long line, but is easier to read.

I agree that this '/' is rather cryptic.
It must be read as 'followed by':

  We split each long line into two lines using backslash followed by newline;
  this is like using one long line, but is easier to read.

It would be better to write 'followed by' instead of '/'
to avoid this misunderstanding.
