This way, it will replace '\' with '\', so nothing change.

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

To me, Python will interpret &#39;\\\\&#39; to &#39;\\&#39;. And the replace method will replace &#39;\\&#39; with &#39;\&#39;. So, the result will be &#39;Hello, \World&#39;. But it&#39;s give me &#39;Hello, \\\\World&#39;.<br>

The result I want form the code is &#39;Hello, \World&#39;.<br>
