Cpp Multi Line Comments

C++ multi line comments

Created By: chatGPT

C++ allows you to write multi-line comments using a specific syntax. This is particularly useful for providing explanations, documentation, or temporarily disabling chunks of code during development. The syntax for multi-line comments begins with /* and ends with */. Everything between these markers will be ignored by the compiler.

/*
   This is a multi-line comment.
   It can span multiple lines.
   Useful for detailed explanations.
*/

Here's an example of how to use multi-line comments in a C++ program:

#include <iostream>

int main() {
    /*
       This program demonstrates the use of multi-line comments.
       Comments are ignored during compilation.
    */
    std::cout << "Hello, World!" << std::endl;
    return 0;
}

A few tips when using multi-line comments:

// Use multi-line comments to describe complex logic or algorithms.
// Avoid nesting multi-line comments, as this can lead to confusion and compilation errors.
// You can also use them to comment out large sections of code during testing.
