Document Summary

A sequence of 0 or more characters delimited by single quotes or double quotes. Ex) , , just remember", zxzz1zx , cse1010", 12". Special characters - special character sequences, beginning with the backslash (\) are interpreted in a special way. Inserting a \ in the middle of a string shows that the next character will have a special meaning. The \ says, python please don"t interpret the quote after \ as the end of the string . Inserting \n will end the current line of text and start a new one. Inserting will skip to the next tab stop in the text. Raw strings - when special characters have no special meaning) Insert r or r before the first quote. Concatenation - inserting + will concatenate strings. >>> s + + t note how it doesn"t insert a space. Repetition - inserting a * followed by an integer.
