Your problem is not at all Python 3-specific. Backslashes are used for escape sequences in string literals (e.g. "\n" is newline, "\t" is tab). For example, the string "c:\new\tally" contains both a newline and a tab, but not an N, nor a T, nor any backslashes (a literal backslash is written using the escape sequence "\\"; i.e. two backslashes). Similarly, "\'" is an escape sequence for apostrophe, and thus does not terminate the string literal, leading to a not entirely obvious SyntaxError. Use forward slashes (/) instead; Windows accepts them instead of backslashes as directory separators in path strings, and they have no such escaping issues.
