Python has two different quote characters ' and " so you can use one for delimiters and the other inside the string:
And if you need both you can also use triple quotes.
If you need both, you can escape the one that matches the delimiter: s = 'this string contains both \' single and " double quotes'
Or using triple quotes: > s = '''this string contains both ' single and " double quotes''' Python will then do the escaping for you. -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
