Android Android studio setup documentation "whitespace"?

[obsidiannovels]

I am reading the setup guide for Android Studio, and in the YoYo documentation I see this part:

highly recommend installing as close to the root folder of your drive as possible AND not using any whitespace - e.g: "C:\AndroidSDK" for your Android Studio path - in order to avoid errors later on, when building your projects. For macOS users, we would still recommend using a nice and memorable short path also, but it's less important that you do so. We use "~/AndroidSDK/" on our machines.

I don't get what they mean here. Isn't "whitespace" something like: " "? Yet in their example of how NOT to do it, they write: "C:\AndroidSDK". I see no whitespaces in that example.
Does the term have another meaning I don't know? Please explain.

I see no whitespaces in that example.

Exactly! It's saying to ensure that there is no whitespace in the path, and the example it gives is a simple path that will work (with no whitespace).

I see your point, after reading it again. I just interpreted the e.g as an example of how NOT to do it.
