Hi,
I use python 3.4.3.
I'm using print function with triple quote, as I understand all the character will be printed as exactly within the triple quote, even with the backslash character. However as you see in the RESULT printout, the first backslash come out OK, but it misses the last backslash, unless I put "\\".
print(        '''      ____    _       __  ______   _____     /  _    \   | |     / /    |   ___|    |  _     \          
     '''        )

RESULT:

      ____    _       __  ______   _____     /  _    \  |  |     / /    |  ___|     |  _       

Thank for your help.--nick
