Doubles quotes character change after type in MacOS Notes.app

My problem is, when I type "double quotes" in Notes app (MacOS), the quotes changed for other character, so, if I try to copy the code for paste anywhere, the code are invalid.

I use Notes.app like "a Gist".

Why this is happening and how to solve that?

For new OS

Turn 'Use smart quotes and dashes' off. It ensures your notes come with quotes as they are when you copy them. Go to

System Preferences->Keyboards->Input Sources->edit

Disable "Smart Quotes and dashes"

and change the input to U.S (Remove US International) in case you are having the problem where a quote changes a character to a special character
