Generating Code Comments and Documentation (Deployment/Maintenance Phase)

In this recipe, we'll harness the power of ChatGPT to breathe life into our Python script by generating comprehensive comments. As software developers, we recognize that commenting code enhances its readability, clarifies the purpose and function of different code segments, and promotes easier maintenance and debugging. Furthermore, comments serve as vital signposts guiding future developers who may work on or use our code.

In the first part of this recipe, we'll prompt ChatGPT to provide comments for each section of our Python script. To achieve this, we'll present ChatGPT with the role of a proficient software engineer seasoned in crafting meaningful comments for Python code.

In the second part of this recipe, we’ll move beyond generating comments to creating in-depth documentation. Here, we’ll see how ChatGPT can be harnessed to generate a design document and a user guide...
