Literals in expressions

If a string contains spaces
or starts with digit,   [3.1.5]
it must be put within quotation marks or apostrophes:

Example:
^if($name eq John){...}

John is a string without spaces, so you don't have to put it within quotation marks or apostrophes.

^if($name eq "John Smith"){...}

This string contains spaces, and is therefore put within quotation marks or apostrophes.
