Answer

Comments can be used to explain the purpose of the program, document the logic of a piece of code, describe the behaviour of a program, etc. This enhances the readability and understandability of a program. For example:


# This program shows a program's components

# Definition of function SeeYou() follows
def SeeYou():
    print("Time to say Good Bye!!")

# Main program-code follows now
a = 15
b = a - 10
print (a + 3)
if b > 5:         # colon means it's a block
    print("Value of 'a' was more than 15 initially.")
else:
    print("Value of 'a' was 15 or less initially.")

SeeYou()          # calling above defined function SeeYou()
