long lines, long string

[Richard Chamberlain]

Hi Holger,

You can extend python code over lines in a few ways. Firstly
with a \ or with one half of a ( or { or [ and the other half
when you complete it.

You can extend strings over lines with triple speech marks

i.e.

spam=1
eggs=1
moreSpam=1
if spam and \
   eggs and \
   moreSpam:
    print 'chicken'

aBigTuple=('Hello','Holger',
          1,2,3,
          5,6,7)
aBigString="""A String can
stretch lots of lines
if you put triple speech marks
"""

print aBigTuple
print aBigString
