Java Comments

This lesson is part of Java · All levels

Summary

This lesson explains how to write comments in Java code as notes that the compiler ignores. There are one-line comments with //, multiple-line comments with /* */, and documentation comments with /** */. Commenting helps to keep the code easy to understand without affecting the outcome of program execution.

Key points

One line commentary is written with two slashes //
Comments are wrapped in many lines at the beginning and at the end
Documentation commentary is used to describe a class or method so that it can be automated.
The compiler ignores the comments so that the comments do not change the program's behavior
