 ### Type Comment Annotations
 Python 3.0 introduced syntax for parameter and return type annotations, as specified in [PEP 484](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0484/). Python 3.6 introduced support for variable type annotations, as specified in [PEP 526](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0526/).
