title: How can I create inline comments (without using backslash to continue on another line)?
body: <p>Sorry in advance if this is something really easy, I'm very new to Python. This seems like it should be something very simple, but I am having a frustratingly hard time finding an answer online. </p>
  
  <p>I'm writing a Python script in a preliminary, pseudo sort of fashion at the moment, and don't have all variable defined yet. I want to be able to have comments in the middle of a line to symbolize where the variable will go, but without commenting out the entire rest of the line to the right.</p>
  
  <p>To visualize what I mean, this is how what I want is done in C/C++:</p>
  
  <pre><code>int some_variable = /*some_variable_that_doesnt_exist_yet*/ + an_existing_variable;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Basically I need to be able to comment the middle of a line without commenting the left or right sides of said comment. Is there any way to do this? </p>
  
  <p>I know there's a way to do it like this (or something similar to this):</p>
  
  <pre><code>some_variable = #some_variable_that_doesnt_exist_yet
                  \+ an_existing_variable
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>...but I'd rather not do it that way if possible, just for ease of reading.</p>
