Python Variables

In Python variables are created the moment you assign a value to it:

Example

Variables in Python:

x = 5

y = "Hello, World!"

Python has no command for declaring a variable.

You will learn more about variables in the Python Variables chapter.

Comments

Python has commenting capability for the purpose of in-code documentation.

Comments start with a #, and Python will render the rest of the line as a comment:

Example

Comments in Python:

#This is a comment.

print("Hello, World!")
