simple example: does work : print("he is 'smart' ...") doesn't work : print('he is 'smart' ...') try it

The reason the ‘smart’ doesn’t work is because you need the \ sign before each single quote.

I don’t believe there is a difference, but I use double, because almost every other language requires double.

Double quotes are better /s it doesn't really matter provided that strings start and end with the same one, but it's more convenient personally for me to use double because I rarely have to include speech in string and therefore use the ' character more often within strings and not having to put a \ (which is halfway across the keyboard) makes things quicker(and nicer looking)
