    Comments in PHP code are lines that are not executed and are intended to help understand the code. Comments can be used to explain code to others or remind the author what they did. PHP supports single-line comments using // or #, and multi-line comments using /* */ which can span multiple lines. Comments can also be used to leave parts of code lines out of execution.

    PHP Comments

    Comments in PHP
    A comment in PHP code is a line that is not executed as a part of the program.
    Its only purpose is to be read by someone who is looking at the code.

    Comments can be used to:

     Let others understand your code


     Remind yourself of what you did - Most programmers have experienced
    coming back to their own work a year or two later and having to re-figure
    out what they did. Comments can remind you of what you were thinking
    when you wrote the code

    PHP supports several ways of commenting:

    Example
    Syntax for single-line comments:

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
    <body>

    <?php
    // This is a single-line comment

    # This is also a single-line comment


    ?>

    </body>
    </html>

    Example
    Syntax for multiple-line comments:
    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
    <body>

    <?php
    /*
    This is a multiple-lines comment block
    that spans over multiple
    lines
    */
    ?>

    </body>
    </html>
    Try it Yourself »

    Example
    Using comments to leave out parts of the code:

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
    <body>

    <?php
    // You can also use comments to leave out parts of a code line
    $x = 5 /* + 15 */ + 5;
    echo $x;
    ?>

    </body>
    </html>
