Is there any difference between a string declared with single quotes '
a = 'Special cases aren\'t special enough to break the rules.'
and one with double quotes "
b = "Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules."
or even with multiple double quotes """
c = """Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules."""
or simple '''
d = '''Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules.'''
in Python? In a practical way, there seems to be no difference in these four expressions, see at Ideone.
Is there a difference? Are there cases where any of the options would be preferable? Why?
That’s a question that has an answer in English and was closed because it was considered "Not constructive".

If you don’t misread your question, why not also add to the question the strings defined with three single quotes and three double quotes? For example:
a = """teste"""– Woss
I voted to reopen the question because I believe that the question marked as duplicate does not really answer the current question. The difference between char and string in Python and commented that both define a string, but nothing is said (nor is part of the scope of that question) about the differences between all statements of string.

@Andersoncarloswoss also believe not, +1 a vote to reopen.
