What I need is how to get today's date with quote sign, "2022-08-14".

The date can be changed on daily basis, and the quote sign, ", stayed at the begining and the end.

having to do with the sign, &, or not. I cant figured it out. Thanks in advance

from datetime import date
from datetime import timedelta
n=0
today = date.today() - timedelta(days = n)
print(today)
print("today")
print("", today , "")

This is what I got from above print

2022-08-14

today

2022-08-14

You need to put the quotes in the string, e.g.

print('"', today, '"')

You could also use triple quotes:

print(""""""", today, """"""")

but that looks harder to read to me.

Your code is incorrect because you've got empty strings either side of today.

CodePudding user response：

In python, to print the double quote " as a string not a symbol, you can use \" inside the quotes like print("\"")

Or you can just use single quotes wrapping a double quote (print('"'))

In your case, I think the simplest solution is to use f-string where variable inside {} will be printed like string

print(f'"{today}"')

This is most basic grammar and I recommend you do some web search before asking here
