Did you use sudo? #, in ubuntu case means 'please use sudo before

That's the first time I read something about this special meaning. It
seems very strange to me, can you tell me where it is documented? And
how should I know, if I'm new to Ubuntu?

It may be said in a strange way. But, Ubuntu doesn't open Root account,
the one noted by # at the prompt, instead of your $.

OK, there may be a '#' at the prompt, if you run a root shell, but then
you don't need sudo. And if I see a line starting with '#', it is a
comment line for me, because that's what a '#' is used for in a shell
script.

You're right about # in the shell script context, but there is no prompt
in a script ...
