**Comments** are brief descriptions of the logic and workings of the written code. They are used to enhance code readability.
 
Generally, two types of comments exist:
* single-line comments 
* multi-line comments




For **single-line comments**, approximately 70 to 72 characters are recommended. Such comments are generally used before or in front of a statement to explain only that one statement. 

A single-line comment in Python starts with `#`. The following is an example of a single-line comment:

# This is a single-line comment
print("Example of a single-line comment in Python")

**Multi-line comments** generally tend to explain a task and are more descriptive.

In Python, multi-line comments start and end with `'''`. The following is an example of a multi-line comment:


'''
This is an example of a multi-line comment.
Multi-line comments are generally descriptive
in nature and tend to explain a block of code.
'''
print("Example of a multi-line comment in Python")

The code below demonstrates the use of single and multi-line comments in Python:

"""Program to print the multiplication table of 5
For instance 5 * 1 = 5
"""
for i in range (1,11): #The loop runs 10 times
  print('5 * ',i,' = ',5*i)# i iteratively increases by 1 everytime
