What do you call these different quotes?
原标题:

I got question about quote. There many few quote using documentation:

  • `
  • "

How to say or tell it in word?.

There few symbol quote not include in keyboard, (, , , ), how could I using symbol without copy-paste from other document.

As programmer view, it really matter write quote to make different from one to another?

问题回答

Yes, it definitely matters!

  • single quote (aka apostrophe)
  • ` backtick (aka grave)
  • " double quote

The other ones (, , , and ) are simply known as "smart" or "curved" variants of their "straight" or "dumb" brethren ( and ").

Precisely how it matters depends on the programming language you re using.

More info here.

depending on the language the quotes matter. A simple example can be done in bash, where quotes are everything:

bash$: "I am `whoami`"
I am root
bash$:  I am `whoami` 
I am `whoami`

In the case of bash ( and many other languages ), using single quotes, vs double quotes has serious implications. Check the language you re using for documentation on how each token is treated.
