Comment out `lstinputlisting` without actually removing them [duplicate]

Question

I am wondering is there a way to hide or comment out all lstinputlisting from latex without actually removing them.

My codes are all like this:

\lstinputlisting[language=Python, caption=NewHope implemented using SageMath]{code_snippets/LWE-KEX/NewHope.sage}

I tried to use comment package it as suggested here and also \renewcommand{\lstinputlisting}{}, both did not work.

Answer 1

Try with the following redefinition:

\renewcommand\lstinputlisting[2][]{}
