How to comment out a block of Python code in Vim

I was wondering if there was any key mapping in Vim to allow me to indent certain lines of code (whether those lines have been selected in visual mode, or n lines above/below current cursor position).

So basically something that converts the following

def my_fun(x, y):
    return x + y

to

#def my_fun(x, y):
#    return x + y

I am okay with using either # or """ for commenting out the relevant lines. Ideally, I would also like the same keymapping to uncomment the lines if the given lines have been commented out.
