""" | |
This is a multiline comment, you use it to | |
describe what the program does, or a more | |
involved piece of code. | |
You just type 3 quotation marks to start a | |
multiline comment "block" and then another 3 | |
quotation mark to end the block. | |
This code turns the red blinky LED (labeled D13) | |
on then waits, then turns it off, then waits. | |
That's it. | |
(Code is originally by Lady Ada, but is super | |
perfunctory) | |

# this is a single line comment | |
# you start it with a octothorpe/hashmark and have to put | |
# one at the beginning of each line. | |
# typically you don't use it with a long block of text. | |
# use them to describe what the next couple of lines do | |
# or use them to visually separate code. | |
