Adding carriage return to expression?
I can put a space between two numbers by doing this:
random(10).toFixed(0) + " " + random(10).toFixed(0)But how do I insert a carriage return so I can stack my two numbers vertically?

You can add a carriage return with backslash+r. I’m not sure it will print correctly here, but I’ll give it a try:
\r

I’m getting a syntax error with this:
random(10).toFixed(0) + \r + random(10).toFixed(0) -
Sorry, you have to put quotes around the backslash+r.

Fantastic! Thank you!
What other “\” tricks are there?

I think backslash+r is the only one I use in expressions, but there are others that can be handy when formatting text for output with scripts:

In case that link ever goes down:
\’ single quote
\” double quote
\\ backslash
\n new line
\r carriage return
\t tab
\b backspace
\f form feed
