if you want to print the double quotes also in the file then just put a \ in front of the quotes you want to print.
double quotes are used to specify string and considered as a special character. if u are printing like this
then it takes 3 strings enclosed in 3 pair of double quotes
hence you are getting the result as expect >
if you want to remove the special meaning of any metacharacter , put a \ before that chatracter.
Can somebody explain it to me that why wc gives more chars suppose

No errors are defined.
