=== Quoted interpolated ===
An expression is "interpolated" into a string when the compiler/interpreter evaluates it and inserts the result in its place.
"Interpolated" means that the interpreter/compiler does recognize a variable or constant identifier located inside the string and the content of the identifier will replace the identifier in the string.

=== Escaped quotes ===
"Escaped" quotes means that a 'flag' symbol is used to warn that the character after the flag is used in the string rather than ending the string.
