What's the difference between single quotes (') and double quotes (") in Python?

In Python, we see 2 types of quotes i.e. single qoutes (') and double quotes ("). What's the difference between them? Also, want to know as to where single quotes (') and double quotes (") are used.

They're identical. If your string contains 1 ore more double quotes, you can use single quotes to surround it and vice versa: a = 'Hello "World"!' print (a) b = "Hello 'World'!" print (b)

its recommended you use doubles but they do the same thing, double quotes allow the use of ' and singles allow the use of " . but i myself normally use triple double quotes for strings containing quotations """ string """
