説明

## Short Description

Examine the following code sample:

```python
def main():
for i in range(20):
print("cc", "by", "nd")

gpl = 20
print(gpl*80)
```
although, they don't really signify those licences, but scancode outputs following:
- cc-by-4.0
- GPL 2.0
- GPL 1.0 or later

It would be better if scancode separates comments/docstrings and actual code in a file before scanning *since the the licence or stuff like that are almost always found in comments/docstrings.*

For this we need to accurately detect programming language (pygments doesn't) and scan accordingly since now we know what character(s) (for that programming language) is used to add comment/docstring.

*Also, this would result in faster scans.*
