Comments in Flint

In Flint, comments are used to explain code or temporarily disable parts of it during debugging. Flint supports two types of comments:

  1. Single-line comments: Start with // and continue until the end of the line.
  2. Multi-line comments: Start with /* and end with */.

Here’s how you use comments:

def main():
    // This is a single-line comment explaining the print statement below
    print("Hello, Flint!");

    /*
     This is a multi-line comment.
     You can use it for detailed explanations
     or temporarily disabling multiple lines of code.
    */
    // print("This line is commented out and won't run.");

Comments are essential for writing clear, understandable, and maintainable code. Use them to explain your logic to others (or to yourself when revisiting code later).
