Comments in C

Comments in C programming are used to explain the code, make it more readable, and add notes or reminders for future reference. Comments can be either single-line or multi-line.

To write a single-line comment in C, use two forward slashes (//) followed by the comment text. For example:

        // This is a single-line comment in C

Anything written after the double forward slashes will be considered as a comment and will not be executed by the compiler.

To write a multi-line comment in C, enclose the comment text within a /* and */ block. For example:

          /*

                This is a multi-line comment in C.

                It can span across multiple lines.

          */

Anything written within the /* and */ block will be considered as a comment and will not be executed by the compiler.

It is a good practice to add comments to your code to make it more understandable and maintainable. However, it is important to not overuse comments or write unnecessary comments, as it can make the code cluttered and difficult to read.
