For ordinary cases in which one type of quote is _not_ embedded in the
other, which is more common/preferred by most Pythoneers (and perhaps in
Python's library)?  I have generally been using single quotes because I
think they're a little easier on the eyes, but when I switched back to C
recently, I found that I began to make mistakes; that made me think that
it would be better to start using double-quotes for the ordinary cases.
