    \n
  1. The chef skillfully prepared the meal, demonstrating his expertise in the kitchen.<\/li>\n
  2. “There is no better time than the present.”<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    def<\/span> add<\/span>(num1, num2<\/span>):\r\n    \"\"\"\r\n    This method takes two numbers as input and returns their sum.\r\n    \r\n    Parameters:\r\n        num1 (int): The first number.\r\n        num2 (int): The second number.\r\n        \r\n    Returns:\r\n        int: The sum of num1 and num2.\r\n    \"\"\"<\/span>\r\n    return<\/span> num1 + num2\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\n

        1. Additional notes: You can include other relevant information in the comments of the method as needed, such as how to handle exceptional cases and the purpose of the method.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
          This is a common format for commenting code, which can be adjusted and expanded based on your needs and your team’s coding style. The purpose of commenting is to make the code more readable and maintainable, making it easier for other developers to understand and use the method.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
