In Python, multi-line comments are also known as "docstrings". Docstrings are used to provide documentation for a function, module, or class, and are enclosed in triple quotes (""").
Here's an example of a multi-line comment or docstring:
def greet(name):
"""
This function greets the person passed in as a parameter.
"""
print("Hello, " + name + ". How are you doing?")
In this example, the docstring is used to provide information about what the greet() function does. When you call the help() function on this function, the docstring will be displayed:
help(greet)
Help on function greet in module __main__:
greet(name)
This function greets the person passed in as a parameter.
Note that while you can use multi-line comments to disable code, this is not their intended use. Instead, you should use single-line comments (indicated by the # symbol) to disable code.
# This line of code is disabled:
# print("This will not be executed")
Overall, docstrings are a useful way to provide documentation and context for your code, and can be especially helpful when working in a team or sharing your code with others.
