Multiline Comments

In reStructuredPython 0.8.0, we added multiline comments with an near identical syntax to JavaScript to make large comments in programs easier to write, a feature that python doesn’t have.

Example:

/* This is a multiline comment
that spans multiple lines */
if True:
    print("Hello World")

This compiles into:

# This is a multiline comment
# that spans multiple lines
if True:
    print("Hello World")

This feature is extremely useful for including documentation in files when a docstring is not wanted
