In this section we will discuss about multi Line Comment in java programming language.

Information & Algorithm

The java comments are statements that are not executed by the compiler and interpreter. The comments can be used to provide information or explanation about the variable, method, class or any statement. It can also be used to hide program code for specific time.

Types of Java Comments

Another Example

public class CommentExample2 {  
public static void main(String[] args) {  
/* Let's declare and 
 print variable in java. */  
    int i=10;  
    System.out.println(i);  
}  
}

How to learn from this program

First read the algorithm, then study the program code line by line. After that, compare the code with the output and finally go through the explanation. This approach helps learners understand both the logic and the implementation properly.

Practice suggestion

After understanding this example, try to rewrite the same program without looking at the code. Then change some values or logic and run it again. This helps improve confidence and keeps learners engaged on the page for longer.
