I'm very confusing on the following part in this script:
----
''':' # begin python string; this line is interpreted by the shell as `:`
which python >/dev/null 2>&1 && exec python "$0" "$@"
which python3 >/dev/null 2>&1 && exec python3 "$0" "$@"
which python2 >/dev/null 2>&1 && exec python2 "$0" "$@"
>&2 echo "error: cannot find python"
exit 1
'''
----
Any hints for the meaning of several ' used above?
