I'm reading someone's code and at the end of the file I found some

I'm interested those "vim:et:sw...." because I'm a user of vi, but I
don't know what these "comments" means and I guess they have some
special usage.
You want to read at
:help modeline
:help 'modelines'
It allows you to set various options for the file, in case the
file/project happens to override your default settings. In your
example, it sets 'expandtab', 'shiftwidth', 'tabstop', and
'filetype' according to PEP8 standards.
