Probably not, but the convention is that periods and commas always stay within the quotes, whether the period or comma is a part of the quote or not. (This differs from what one expects from writing code.) When using question marks though, the placement does depend on whether the question mark is a part of the quote.
Edit: When I was younger, I also didn’t know this and would place all punctuation marks according to whether it is a part of the quote. In fact, in my native language that is what you’re supposed to do. To this day I still dislike this convention in English.
Edit 2: I know that this is an American English thing.
Now we need to figure out when the first ever usage of “no” in the English language was.
Also isn’t the period supposed to be inside the quotation?
Is the period part of the quote?

If I remember correctly, this is a US thing. We were taught to place punctuation depending on whether they are part of the quote. So
I was reading ‘War and Peace’.
but
She asked me ‘Tea or coffee?’
Fuck convention when it doesn’t make sense, though. I’m gonna put stuff that’s part of the quote within the quotes and nothing else.
Learning programming before higher level English has created a strong distaste for that convention.
I also hate this convention tbh. Doesn’t really make sense.
Don’t those writing conventions and rules differ from region to region?
It’s a US thing.
