title: Do Python comments have to be indented the same as surrounding code blocks? (VS Code)
body: <p>I'm working on a Python project using VS Code as my editor, and I'm getting a Python indentation error when I place comments in between blocks of code. Specifically:</p>
  
  <pre><code>while score0 &lt; goal and score1 &lt; goal:
      if player:
          ...
      else:
          ...
      player = other(player)
  
  # END PROBLEM 5
  # BEGIN PROBLEM 6
  "*** YOUR CODE HERE ***"
      say(score0, score1)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm getting an indentation error when I evoke say(score0, score1), but the error gets fixed if I indent the comments to match the surrounding lines. Is this a general rule in Python, or a requirement of using VS Code?</p>
