Explanation of this code, please

Question

Can someone tell me why this python code outputs 5

A = 1#2
B = "5"
AB = B*A
print (AB)

Thanks

Answer 1

# use in python for write a comment for example

A=5*2 #the result is 10

the compiler execute just A=5*2 and leave everythings that comes after "#"

Answer 2

A = 1#2
# ==> comment in python so A =1
B="5" ==> B its string variable
AB = B*A ==> "5"*1 that mean repeat "5" once times if was A = 3 the result equal 555

Answer 3

A = 1#2
# ==> comment in python so A =1

Can you elaborate please?

Answer 4

Thank you. haven't been taught about that just yet.

Answer 5

a=1 #2 comments
so
a=1
b='5'
ab=b*a
print (ab)
print (1×'5')
so and is '5'
