Whats the difference between a normal statement and a comment in terms of when both are displayed.

Question

Like in the php comments tutorial section I couldn't different between the statement and the comments.

Answer 1

A normal statement is executed by the php server when it reaches that line.

A comment is ignored and not executed by the php server.

This mode also applies in other languages.

So basically, comments are ignored by the compiling programming language.

You mark a line as a comment with the
// - for single line comments
#- for single line comments too
/* */ - for multi-line comments

so when it sees this, it ignores the line .

I hope you understand.
