The Well-Grounded Python Developer: How the pros use Python and Flask
A comment is a user-authored response associated with a blog post, other content, or another comment in a threaded discussion.
- How it is used
- Enables registered users to respond to blog content and to existing replies in a discussion hierarchy.
- How deep it goes
- Works through storage, recursive retrieval, rendering, and creation; limits the example interface to two reply levels.
- Examples
- Uses a two-level post-and-reply tree and a form handler that saves a child post before redirecting to its root.
- What you can do after
- Apply it via SQLAlchemy and Flask to retrieve threaded comments and save new replies beneath their parent posts.

A comment is non-data text embedded in a file format and delimited according to that format's syntax.
- How it is used
- Skips non-data annotations while parsing PNM headers.
- How deep it goes
- Implements comment recognition and recursive skipping alongside whitespace, without treating comment contents as data.
- Examples
- Uses percent-prefixed PNM header comments consumed through a newline by an Attoparsec parser.
- What you can do after
- Build it from scratch with Attoparsec by recognizing comments and ignoring them between PNM header fields.
