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

                            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:

                                       '''This is                         """This is
                                          Multiline               OR         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.
                      Python divides the operators in the following categories.

                           Arithmetic Operators

                      Arithmetic operators perform arithmetic operations between two operands. The arithmetic operators
                      are defined in the following table:

                       Operator         Name                         Description                     Example      Output
                                                                                                   (x=7 and y=3)

                           +       Addition         Adds values on either side of the operator.         x + y        10

                           –       Subtraction      Subtracts the right-hand operand from the          x – y          4
                                                    left-hand operand.

                           *       Multiplication   Multiplies values on either side of the operator.  x * y         21
