# Comments


Comments are very important in programming. They are used to document what a piece of code does in plain English, and they are also used to disable a part of the program that we want remove temporarily.

This is because the Python program ignores comments.

Here's how we use comments:

          
          # Printing out a message
          print("Hi")
          
        

In the above example, we created a comment using the # symbol. Because line 1 is a comment, all of line 1 is ignored. The program continues on to line 2 and the output is simply:

          
          Hi
          
        

Comments can also be placed more towards end of the line:

          
          print("Hi")      # I'm a comment, too!
          
        

Here, the output would still just be "Hi".


# Instructions


Create a initials.py program that displays your initials in block letters.

First, start your program with a comment that says a fun fact about yourself.

Then, create your block letters with your initials.

For example, if your name is Ada Lovelace, your initials would be A and L and your block letters would look like:

          
            A    L
           A A   L
          A   A  L
          AAAAA  L 
          A   A  L
          A   A  L
          A   A  LLLLL
          
        

Hint: This will likely need seven print() functions.
