#This is a comment

Comment out multiple lines

There is no block commenting in Python (an equivalent for /* */ in C). 

In VSCode, select the lines and use ‘CTRL’+’/’ to comment and uncomment the block

Comment blocks using triple quotes

Not officially comments according to Python spec, but often used as a handy way to create multiline comments:

    """
    Here is a multiline comment

    Some things:
        Another line
        and more
    """
