Pointlessly provocative subject line edited.
Since all three lines are constants know by the programmer at the time the
source code is written, it should be written as:
sSQL = """line 1
line 2
line 3"""
Or if you prefer:
sSQL = "line 1\nline 2\nline 3"
Or even:
sSQL = ("line 1\n"
"line 2\n"
"line 3")
taking advantage of Python's compile-time implicit concatenation of string
constants.
