Let's end this...

" -or- '

just get used to use " with strings and ' with chars

in langs where it is interchangeable:
' for internal strings
" for strings the user will see/the program will output

This is language dependent, not all languages like “ which drives you crazy when you’re used to putting strings in “

Depends on the positioning of the moon in its current orbit, when aligned and the aurora borealis is present the mirk hamster crawls out its hole to press the ' key, otherwise gravity pulls down the " key... joking, like everyone else said, depends on the language

Fight me

I generally use " for strings and ' for chars and other params, options, etc unless I have to use a ' inside of " or vice versa, then I adjust accordingly.

@Jakuho....get out

Fucking always ' for chars and " because CONSISTENCY

Even in JavaScript and Python

I will fucking change your code if I see you doing some 'Hello world!' bullshit. I will change your code and shove HDMI cables up your ass.

"" ''

" for Strings, ' for chars and " ' ' " for nested strings

@AlgoRythm I actually use ' perfectly consistently in js.
