Strings are immutable. They can be expressed in several ways in single quotes or double quotes:
>>> ’Hello World’ ’Hello World’ # using single quote
>>> “doesn’t” “doesn’t” # using double quotes
>>> ’”Yes,” he said.’ # A mix of both ’”Yes,” he said.’
>>> “\”Yes,\” he said.” ’”Yes,” he said.’
>>> u’Hello World’ # Creates a unicode string u’Hello World’
>>> “””Hello World””” # Using triple quote ‘Hello World’
>>> ”’Hello World”’ ‘Hello World’
The small ‘u’ in front of the quote indicates that a Unicode string is to be created
>>> r’Hello \n World’ # Creates a raw string that do
# not give special attention to
# escape sequences.
‘Hello \\n World’
