How to write comments in C

In this tutorial, we are going to learn about how to write the comments in C.

Comments helps us to understand the code better, in case if we forgot what is happening on the particular line of code.

There are two ways to write comments in C.

• Single line comment

• Multiline comments

Single line comment

To we can write a single line comment in C, we can use the forward slashes // followed by the comment.

Here is an example:

// this is a single-line comment

Anything we written after // is ignored by the compiler.

Multiline comments

To write a multiline comments, we can use C /* and */ syntax.

/*

see mee
in multiple lines
*/

The multiline comment starts after the /* and ends at */.
