Use Of Single Quotes

So when we’re creating queries that contain text, we use the single quote character to delimit the beginning and ending of our text value. The golden rule to remember is that single quotation marks are used inside the double ones. For example, if the string is enclosed with a single quote like 'hello world', we need to use single quotes with a backslash (/) to escape the character.

This is used in many different contexts throughout postgresql. The most common use of single and double quotes is to represent strings by enclosing a series of characters. Where pm.alias = 'toys''r''us france'.

Sometimes we have to use quotes (single or double quotes) together in the same string, in such cases, we use single and double quotes alternatively so that they can be distinguished.

And if the string is enclosed with double quotes like hello world, then we need to use double quotes with a backslash /. Sometimes we have to use quotes (single or double quotes) together in the same string, in such cases, we use single and double quotes alternatively so that they can be distinguished. The use of a single quotation mark is to encase a quotation within another quotation or to encase a quotation or title in a headline. The first example uses a template literal and is much easier to read than the second.
