Python Comments

 What are the comments?


  • Comments are a way to provide an explanation or clarification for the code. 
  • Comments should be added to the code to explain its functionality to others.

In Python, there are two types of comments.

    1 .  Single-Line comments:

  • To add a single-line comment in Python, you need to begin the line with the '#' symbol.
  • Use for a brief explanation

Input: 

x = 5  # Assigns the value 5 to x
print(x)

Output: 

5

    2 .   Multi-line comments (DocString):

  • For more extensive explanation or documentation, multiline comments are used called DocString 
  • These strings are enclosed in triple cotes ( ' ' '  or  '" " ")

Input: 

def greet(name):   
    """Prints a personalized greeting.
    :param name: The name of the person to greet"""
   
    print(f"Hello, {name}!")

greet("Alice")

Output: 

Hello, Alice!

 

  • You can also use ' # ' in each line for Multi-line comments


Input: 

# This is a comment
# written in
# more than just one line
print("Hello, World!")

Output: 

Hello, World!

Python Variables

What are variables?   In Python, variables are names, references or identifiers that store the values. A variable is a  name  associated with a  memory location  where data is stored. They can hold different types of data such as numbers, strings, lists, etc. Input x=5 y="John" Here x, and y are variables which store Data (5 and "Jo hn") The rule for naming variables? Choose a descriptive name for your variable that accurately reflects the purpose or value it holds. A variable name must start with a letter or the underscore character(A-z or _) A variable name cannot start with a number A variable name can only contain alpha-numeric characters and underscores (A-z, 0-9, and _ ) Variable names are case-sensitive (age, Age and AGE are three different variables) A variable name cannot be any of the  Python keywords .
