Reference Guide

There are different escaping rules for using single quotation marks versus

double quotation marks.

For using double quotation marks:

The following characters must be escaped by prepending a backslash:

• $ (dollar sign)

• " (double quote)

• ` (back quote)

• \ (back slash)

For example, use the following for a string that contains the special

characters, $, ",',`and \

For using single quotation marks:

• No character escaping is necessary.

• A single quotation mark is not used even with a back slash escaped.

NOTE: An empty string may be specified as either ” “(using double

quotation marks) or ' '(using single quotation marks).
