  2. Comment (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comment_(computer_programming)

    Most languages support multi-line block (a.k.a. stream) and/or single line comments. A block comment is delimited with text that marks the start and end of comment text. It can span multiple lines or occupy any part of a line. Some languages allow block comments to be recursively nested inside one another, but others do not.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Python has very limited support for private variables using name mangling which is rarely used in practice as information hiding is seen by some as unpythonic, in that it suggests that the class in question contains unaesthetic or ill-planned internals. The slogan "we're all responsible users here" is used to describe this attitude. [23]

    Block comments in Perl are considered part of the documentation, and are given the name Plain Old Documentation (POD). Technically, Perl does not have a convention for including block comments in source code, but POD is routinely used as a workaround. PHP. PHP supports standard C/C++ style comments, but supports Perl style as well. Python

  5. LOLCODE - Wikipedia

    Comments are ignored by the compiler and are written for better understanding of the program. OBTW [MESSAGE]TLDR: Similar to the BTW keyword, the OBTW keyword marks a multiline comment, a comment that spans multiple lines. In LOLCODE, the OBTW keyword signifies the start of a multiline comment while the TLDR keyword ends it.

    Python 3.13 introduces more syntax for types, a new and improved interactive interpreter , featuring multi-line editing and color support; an incremental garbage collector (producing shorter pauses for collection in programs with a lot of objects, and addition to the improved speed in 3.11 and 3.12), and an experimental just-in-time (JIT ...

  7. Indentation style - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indentation_style

    In computer programming, indentation style is a convention, a.k.a. style, governing the indentation of blocks of source code.An indentation style generally involves consistent width of whitespace (indentation size) before each line of a block, so that the lines of code appear to be related, and dictates whether to use space or tab characters for the indentation whitespace.

  8. Docstring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Docstring

    In programming, a docstring is a string literal specified in source code that is used, like a comment, to document a specific segment of code.Unlike conventional source code comments, or even specifically formatted comments like docblocks, docstrings are not stripped from the source tree when it is parsed and are retained throughout the runtime of the program.

  9. Shebang (Unix) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shebang_(Unix)

    The shebang line is usually ignored by the interpreter, because the "#" character is a comment marker in many scripting languages; some language interpreters that do not use the hash mark to begin comments still may ignore the shebang line in recognition of its purpose. [9]
