= Code Comments
Ruby has two types of comments: inline and block.
Inline comments start with the #
character and continue until the
end of the line:
# On a separate line
class Foo # or at the end of the line
# can be indented
def bar
end
end
Block comments start with =begin
and end with =end
.
Each should start on a separate line.
=begin
This is
commented out
=end
class Foo
end
=begin some_tag
this works, too
=end
=begin
and =end
can not be indented, so this is a
syntax error:
class Foo
=begin
Will not work
=end
end
