      Hi,
      I wanna declare string like:

      some_string = "This is "my" string"

      so it would print as

      This is "my" string

      I don’t see anything in the reference guide.

      Thank you

      I don’t think it matters which quotation symbol you use but the main quote symbols must be different to the internal symbols.
      so you could have …

      “This is ‘my’ string”

      or

      ‘This is “my” string’

      Depending on which symbol you want to see in your final string.

      Barry.
