a C comment trick
Today I saw a trick to comment and uncomment multiple lines of code in C. It
uses both /*...*/
and //
to comment as below:
/*
foo();
bar();
//*/
To uncomment, just add another /
in the first line:
//*
foo();
bar();
//*/
So you don’t need to change the other end, which saves a lot of time.
Note. Although //
is not ANSI C and is brought in by C++, actually many
compilers support this format of comments.
