> assert '''"""''' == '""""' # Fails The left-hand side is a triple-quote string literal [1][2] that contains 3 double-quote characters. The right-hand side is a single-quote string literal that contains 4 double-quote characters. Use the interactive shell to check the values. For example: >>> list('''"""''') ['"', '"', '"'] >>> list('""""') ['"', '"', '"', '"'] If you have difficulty understanding an aspect of the language syntax, please ask a question in an appropriate forum such as python-tutor, python-list, or Stack Overflow. --- [1] https://docs.python.org/3/reference/lexical_analysis.html#string-and-bytes-literals [2] https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/introduction.html#strings ---------- nosy: +eryksun resolution: -> not a bug stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue42876> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
