Question

Okay, this is a really dumb question: How do you create the comment code?

I know you use this symbol, # to start it, but when I press enter to go to a new line, it shows ...
Is that what it's supposed to do?

Answer 1

# comment are usefull when you are writing script/programs in file to be saved and read, but I think you are using it in the interactive command line.
It is ok, you just press enter to get the prompt >>> back.

Answer 2

Thank you!

By any chance, would you know where and how I would be able to save the script/program so that it can be read? Is there a separate program or is there a way to do that in python.exe?

Answer 3

You can create a new file (ex myprogram.py) and start your script in it, and then use python to execute it. You can use notepad or IDLE of python to do so. You can start with basic tutorial of python : http://learnpythonthehardway.org/book/

Answer 4

This intro to IDLE is also useful:
