Most programming languages support comments, and Kotlin is no exception. If you are looking to improve readability of your source code then use comments. There are two types of comments supported by Kotlin which are explained below-
It is also known as end-of-line comment or line comment. It starts with // and goes till the end of a line.
Syntax
//I am an end-of-line comment
Example
val tax = "GST" //This variable will store the name of tax
This type of comment spans multiple lines. It starts with /* and ends with */.
Syntax
/* I am a block comment */
Example
/*
This program will
print numbers
from 1 to 10.
*/
public fun main(args: Array<String>) {
var i = 1
while(i<=10){
println(i);
i++
}
}
Output
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
