String literals span multiple lines in several ways.
# Continuation lines can be used, with a backslash as the last character on the
# line indicating that the next line is a logical continuation of the line:
hello = "This is a rather long string containing\n\
several lines of text just as you would do in C.\n\
Note that whitespace at the beginning of the line is\
significant."
print hello
