I basically don't use it at all. Usually I prefer to spread strings like this: print('Hello' ' world!') Usually triple quotes come up with docstrings. def f(): '''This function does: blablabla blablabla''" # And now the actual code

""" it is generally used when you want to inspect your code on output screen""" Unlike conventional comments these docstring comments retain throughout the program run That's it!

Arnav Deshpande, Python doesn't require that you put your docstrings in triple quotes. Regular string literals work just as well!
