Besides numbers, Python can also manipulate strings, which can be expressed | ||
in several ways. They can be enclosed in single quotes (``'...'``) or | ||
double quotes (``"..."``) with the same result [#]_. ``\`` can be used | ||

To quote a quote, we need to "escape" it, by preceding it with ``\``. | ||
Alternatively, we can use the other type of quotation marks:: | ||

In the interactive interpreter, the output string is enclosed in quotes and | ||
special characters are escaped with backslashes. While this might sometimes | ||
look different from the input (the enclosing quotes could change), the two | ||
strings are equivalent. The string is enclosed in double quotes if | ||
