Single and Multi Line Comments in Java

The comments are the statements that are not executed by the compiler and interpreter. It 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 a specific time.

1. Single Line comments are started by // and may be positioned after a statement on the same line, but not before.

Example:
//single line comment

2. Multi-Line comments are defined between /* and */. They can span multiple lines and may even been positioned between statements.

     Example:
       /*
       Multi
       Line
       Comment
       */
