As no language is mentioned so I will assume it to be python The answer is that there is no difference between single quote and double quote string.

Depends on the language. It is much different e.g. in C++ and PHP

Syntactically there is no difference any quote can be used for any string . But If your string has single quote between characters Prefer using double quote for quoting string and vice versa it's just.

In some languages like Go, C++ and Java. There is a difference. Single quote indicates a character. Double quote indicates a string. In PHP, string interpolation can not be done with single quoted strings. In some other languages like JavaScript and Python, it does not matter.
