How to write an inline-comment in Python


Is there a method of ending single line comments in Python?

Something like

/* This is my comment */ some more code here...

Solution

  • No, there are no inline comments in Python.

    From the documentation:

    A comment starts with a hash character (#) that is not part of a string literal, and ends at the end of the physical line. A comment signifies the end of the logical line unless the implicit line joining rules are invoked. Comments are ignored by the syntax; they are not tokens.
