C Language Comments

C language comments are used to provide information about the code line. They are widely used for recording code. There are two types of comments in C language.

1. Single-line comments

2. Multi-line Comments

Single-line comments

Single-line comments use double backslashes//Representation. Let's look at an example of a single-line comment in C language.

Example

#include<stdio.h>　　　　
int main() {　　　　
　　　　//Print Information　
　　　　printf("Hello C");　　　　
　　　　return 0;　　
}

Output:

Hello C

Even you can add comments after statements. For example:

Example

printf("Hello C");//Print Information

Multi-line Comments

Multi-line comments use backslash asterisks/ * ... * /Representation. It can occupy multiple lines of code, but cannot be nested. Syntax:

Example

/*　
To Comment
Code
*/

Let's see an example of a multi-line comment in C language.

Example

#include<stdio.h>　　　　
int main() {　　　　
　　　　/*Print Information
　　　　Multi-line Comments*/　　
　　　　printf("Hello C");　　　　
　　　　return 0;　　
}

Output:
