Single or double quotes; which do you prefer when typing?

[pebkac]

So today i was writing a program in Python, and while looking around the documentation and tutorials, i've noticed that some people prefer single quotes for enclosing strings, and others prefer double quotes.

So i ask you, FP, what are your quotes of choice when typing anything?

I personally prefer double quotes, because i find it easier to press shift+2 than to stretch the pinky of my right hand far to the right and up (i have a slovenian keyboard). I use single quotes primarily as apostrophes.

I think 'single quotes' look cleaner.

I use 'double-quotes' when referring to what someone said,

"I don't like using double quotes when referring to something by it's name, such as 'Pokemon', though I do follow the rules of grammar and use 'single-quotes' inside a double quote. It's proper syntax."

I like the look of single quotes but my schooling makes me automatically always use double quotes.

^agree

Depends on the situation.

I use single quotes under two circumstances:

1. I'm programming
2. It's a quotation nested within a quotation.

Quote within a quote is single for me.

double's for me.

Double. For two reasons.

I'm used to it.
It's easier to type (at least in north European keyboards)

Double.

Ive been doing it all my life, its too hard to change it now.

I only ever use single quotes for a quote-on-quote or as an apostrophe, and that's why I never use it as a quote mark because I think of it as an apostrophe.
