How to give Comments in C++ Language !!
Every language will provide great feature which is used in source code. We can write more readable and eye catching program structure using comments. We should use as many as comments in C++ program. “Comment is non executable Statement” in the C++.
Types of Comment in C++ Programming
- Single Line Comment
- Multiple Line Comment
Single Line Comment
cout<
- Single Line comment starts with “//” symbol.

multiple line comment */
cout << “Hello C++ Programming”;
return(0);
}

- Multi Line comment ends with “*/” symbol.
