Comment (Python)

Single Line Comment#

A single line comment starts with # and continues until the end of the line.

# Everything on this line is commented.
print("Hello, World!")

You can also write it inline, to the right of your code:

print("Hello, World!")  # Everything to the right is commented.

Multi-Line Comments#

Python does not have a dedicated block comment syntax. Instead, you write multiple single line comments:

# This is a comment
# that spans multiple
# lines
print("Hello, World!")
