| first character of a line, the whole line is treated as a comment, but |
| in this case the line can also be a logical line number directive |
| (see <a href="Comments.html#Comments">Comments</a>) or a preprocessor control command |
| (see <a href="Preprocessing.html#Preprocessing">Preprocessing</a>). |
| |
| <p><a name="index-comment-character_002c-XStormy16-2588"></a><a name="index-XStormy16-comment-character-2589"></a>A semicolon (‘<samp><span class="samp">;</span></samp>’) can be used to start a comment that extends |
| from wherever the character appears on the line up to the end of the |
| line. |

| The ‘<samp><span class="samp">|</span></samp>’ character can be used to separate statements on the same |
| line. |
