Python Comments

1 - What is comment in Python 

Programming languages ​​provide a notation for inserting comments into the code, that is, text that will be ignored when the program is run. Comments can be used to explain a complicated part of a program, or to put indications in the code, like the source code, the language version...

2 - Comment on a single line 

In Python, we insert a comment on a single line with the character # (a pound sign).

Syntax

#This is a comment that will be ignored at runtime

Example

# define a variable of the integer type
n = 5
# Display of the variable
print ("The value of n is:", n)

3 - Comment on several lines 

If we want to insert a comment on several lines in Python, we use the double quotes symbol

Syntax

"""
This is a comment
in several lines
which will be ignored during execution
"""
