"q/*STRING*/"
            A single-quoted, literal string. A backslash represents a
            backslash unless followed by the delimiter or another backslash,
            in which case the delimiter or backslash is interpolated.

                $foo = q!I said, "You said, 'She said it.'"!;
                $bar = q('This is it.');
                $baz = '\n';                # a two-character string
