[Tutor] Converting code to string

[bhaaluu]

Greetings,

The following is from:

Self-Printing One-Liner

If you run this one-liner at a command prompt, it should print out a
copy of itself (write it as one continuous line, without the line
break):

python -c "x='python -c %sx=%s; print x%%(chr(34),repr(x),chr(34))%s';
print x%(chr(34),repr(x),chr(34))"

Not very useful, but kinda fun… I just saw some other self-printing
programs and thought it would be interesting to make a one-liner
version.

Hopefully helpful!
