> how works python interpreter for finding comment ?

It works as specified in the language reference. In particular, see
<URL:http://docs.python.org/3/reference/lexical_analysis.html#comments>.

> if possible find nested comment ?

Python's comments are line-end comments only. The syntax does not allow
multi-line nor nested comments.
