C# Comments

Comments can be used to describe the C# code, making it more readable. It may also be used to prevent usage when testing another code.

Single-line Comments

One-line comments start with two forward slashes (//)

Any text between (//) end of line is ignored C# (will not be executed).

This example uses a single-line comment before a line of code:

      
        // This is a comment
      "Console"
      .
      WriteLine
      (
      "Hello World!"
      )
      ;
      
    

This example uses a single-line comment at the end of a line of code:

      
        // This is a comment
      "Console"
      .
      WriteLine
      (
      "Hello World!"
      )
      ;
      
    

C# Multi-line Comments

Multi-line comments start with / * and end with * /.

Any text between / * and * / will be ignored by C#.

This example uses multi-line comments (comment block) to define code:

Example

/* The code below will print the words Hello World
      to the screen, and it is amazing */
      Console.WriteLine("Hello World!");
