There are two different types of comments in C#.
The first of which is a single line comment that as its name states, can only be used on a single line at a time.
//this is a single line comment
If you want to add comments that may take more than one line you have the option of using multiple single line comments.
//you can use //multiple single line //comments to make //a block
You also have the option of using a block style comment.
/*this * is * a * multi-line comment */
It is considered good practice to use multiple comments throughout your code. It not only helps other developers understand what you were trying to accomplish, it’s a good reference for you to look back on after putting down a project for a couple of months.
*note* Comments are not taken into consideration by the compiler, multiple comments will not bulk up your end executable.
