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.
