There are a few ways in which we can comment out a block of code in Python, let's take a look at them with examples.
Example 1: Triple Quotes - Multi-line Comments (''')
'''
def add_numbers(a, b):
no1 = a
no2 = b
sum = no1 + no2
return sum
'''
def diff_numbers(a, b):
no1 = a
no2 = b
diff = no2 - no1
return diff
result = diff_numbers(5, 10)
print("Result:", result)
Example 2: Single line Comments (using #)
# def add_numbers(a, b):
# no1 = a
# no2 = b
# sum = no1 + no2
# return sum
def diff_numbers(a, b):
no1 = a
no2 = b
diff = no2 - no1
return diff
result = diff_numbers(1, 2)
print("Result:", result)
# def add_numbers(a, b):
# no1 = a
# no2 = b
# sum = no1 + no2
# return sum
def diff_numbers(a, b):
no1 = a
no2 = b
diff = no2 - no1
return diff
result = diff_numbers(1, 2)
print("Result:", result)
