Comments are pieces of the input that are ignored. There are two
types of comments. A line comments is introduced by %
: after
that, the rest of that line is ignored. Block comments span larger
sections of input. Anything that is enclosed in %{
and
%}
is ignored too. The following fragment shows possible uses
for comments:
% notes for twinkle twinkle follow: c4 c g' g a a %{ This line, and the notes below are ignored, since they are in a block comment. g g f f e e d d c2 %}
