Subject: Strings are not equal

I am testing two strings to see if they are equal.
One string is just a simple string: "\17"
The other is parsed to: "\17"

num = 7
num2 = "\17"

parsed_num = "\1#{num}"

puts parsed_num.class
puts num2.class

if parsed_num == num2
  puts 'Equal'
else
  puts 'Not equal'
end

It returns:
String
String
Not equal

My goal is to have parsed_num exactly the same as the literal num2
