 Building Blocks of Python

Docstring

Ref : https://www.datacamp.com/community/tutorials/docstrings-python

• It is a short form of Document string
• Used to define what a function or class does
• Docstrings are similar in spirit to commenting, but they are enhanced, more logical, and useful version of commenting. Docstrings act as documentation for the class, module, and packages.
• On the other hand, Comments are mainly used to explain non-obvious portions of the code and can be useful for comments on Fixing bugs and tasks that are needed to be done.
• Docstrings are represented with closing & opening quotes while comments start with a # at the beginning.
• Note that comments can not be accessed with the built-in doc attribute and help function.
