in string, the character ' is to indicate start or end of a stri. but how to display or input the character '
example, i want to set the string variable a so that it contains a single character ' only.
how?
if it is other character, it is ok like
a = 'my name' then content of a will be the string my name.
i just want a single character ' in a .
thanks
