ok for the book, but routes.py is ok.
if you notice, there's the r in front of the string.... that r means
"string literal", as in "literally this string", so \n, \t, etc don't get
interpreted and quoting isn't necessary (because it gets interpreted as a
byte string and not a string)
Actually, while working with regexes, it's quite handy to have r at
hand....as you noticed the syntax gets increasingly crispy if you choose to
not use string literals.
This is explained in detail on http://docs.python.org/2/library/re.html
