## Comments
Comments allow you to document your code. Comments are ignored by the Swift compiler, and are only useful for people reading your code base.
Single-line comments begin with two forward-slashes `//`.
#### Example:
```swift
// Hello, single-line comment!
```
Multiline comments begin with a forward-slash followed by an asterisk `/*` and ends with an asterisk followed by a forward-slash `*/`
#### Example:
```swift
/* Hello,
multiline-line comment! */
```
