commenting, string literal, function definition, join method, for in, item() method of dictionary, duck typing, the idiomatic “conditional script”, What does if __name__ == “__main__”: do.

some excerpts from above link, When your script is run by passing it as a command to the Python interpreter,

python myscript.py

all of the code that is at indentation level 0 gets executed. Functions and classes that are defined are, well, defined, but none of their code gets ran. Unlike other languages, there’s no main() function that gets run automatically - the main() function is implicitly all the code at the top level.
