Why this is not working.

'Hello, \\\\World'.replace('\\', '\\')

Whoops a daisy!!! --------------^^^^--^^^^ ???


To me, Python will interpret '\\\\' to '\\'. And the replace method will 
replace '\\' with '\'. So, the result will be 'Hello, \World'. But it's give me 
'Hello, \\\\World'.

The result I want form the code is 'Hello, \World'.
