I'm surprised nobody has mentioned explicit conversion flag yet
The flag There is an interesting side-effect though:
Notice how different composition of quotation marks are handled differenty so that it fits a valid string representation of a Python object 2. 1 Correct me if anybody knows otherwise. 2 The question's original example answered Dec 7, 2020 at 9:24

1 How do you integrate a quote within a quote?Rule: Use single quotation marks inside double quotation marks when you have a quotation within a quotation. Example: Bobbi told me, “Delia said, 'This will never work. ' ”
How do you get a string between quotes in Python?findall() method to extract strings between quotes, e.g. my_list = re. findall(r'"([^"]*)"', my_str) . The re. findall method will match the provided pattern in the string and will return a list containing the strings between the quotes.
How do you print double quotes in Python?Use the escape character to print single and double quotes
Use the escape character \ before double or single quotes to include them in the string.
How do you insert a double quote into a quoted string?If you need to use the double quote inside the string, you can use the backslash character. Notice how the backslash in the second line is used to escape the double quote characters. And the single quote can be used without a backslash.
