For answering questions like this, the Python language reference is your
friend:
String literals may optionally be prefixed with a letter 'r' or 'R';
such strings are called raw strings and use different rules for
interpreting backslash escape sequences.
<URL:http://docs.python.org/reference/lexical_analysis.html#string-literals>.
No mention is made of any distinction made between ‘r’ or ‘R’ in this
context.
