Single Line Comment

In case, a user wants to specify a single line comment, then comment must start with the symbol #.

Example:

Program: Output:
# printing a string Hello World
print("Hello world")

Multiple-line Comment

Python does not have a syntax for multiline comments. To add a multiple-line comment, you could
insert a # for each line.
Example:

Program : Output :

# printing a string Hello World
#print five names Rachna

print("Hello World") Sambhav

print("Rachna") Akshat
print("Sambhav") Tushar

print("Akshat")
print("Tushar")

However, the text written inside triple quotes (''' or ''"") is also considered as comment. You can use
the triple quotes to write multiline comments.

For example:
OR
'''This is """This is
Multiline Multiline

Comment''' Comment"""

OPERATORS

In Python, operators can be defined as special symbols which perform arithmetic and logical
computation. The values which the operators use to get the output are called operands. For example,
in the expression 10 – 5, 10 and 5 are operands and the minus (–) sign is the operator.

Arithmetic Operators

Arithmetic operators perform arithmetic operations between two operands.
