Python uses # for comments, not %, as I'm sure you know. What language
were you thinking off when you wrote the above?
IIRC Lisp uses % for comments, but it may need to be doubled. (It's
been doubled in the examples I've seen, and I don't remember the syntax.)
Perhaps Scheme has the same convention, but Scheme could be considered a
part of the Lisp clade.
