Position Comment License For Free

HTML <!--...--> Tag The comment tag is used to insert comments in the source code. Comments are not displayed in the browsers.

A good best practice to follow when writing comments in code is to describe the why, not the what. In general, good code should be self-explanatory in how it works, at least in isolation. Explain the reasoning behind the code, not just what the code is doing. This can help others understand the intent of the code.

You should comment wherever you can - put comments that explain what you're doing, and if you're doing something tricky or unique be sure to explain that, as well. A good goal is to have 1 comment for every 1-4 lines of code.

Good comments compliment your code, while bad ones pull readers away from the main points. Before putting any comments, ask yourself whether it would serve any purposes rather than distract people from comprehending your program. Good codes have rhythm while mediocre codes have a lot of pauses.

You can comment out one or more lines of code in any C/C++ editor view. The leading characters // are added to the beginning of each line when commenting one or more lines of code. You can also block comment multiple lines of code using the characters /* */ .
