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.

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!")

In Python, you declare a variable by writing the name, followed by = and the value:

score = 0

There is no need to specify a type. Python figures out the type from the value on the right.
