Comments

Comments are lines of text in your code that Python ignores because they are for people, not machines. In most cases, comments are created to explain a piece of code so that another programmer who will watch the code can understand it.

# This is a comment
# Python ignores it
print("Hello, kittens!")
123
# This is a comment # Python ignores it print("Hello, kittens!")
copy

Comments begin with #, and after this you write the text you need. Let's take another example:

# Creating variables
number_1 = 65
number_2 = 30
# Addition of two numbers
sum_=number_1 + number_2
# Displaying the result on the screen
print(sum_)
1234567
# Creating variables number_1 = 65 number_2 = 30 # Addition of two numbers sum_=number_1 + number_2 # Displaying the result on the screen print(sum_)
copy

In the code above, Python displays the message and ignores the comment.

Everything was clear?

How can we improve it?
