single line: // you can use them to explain your code

multiline:

I use them at the beginning of my code to input some dates about my program (author, date, name of progr., some explanation)

And the java doc comments are used if you want to create a java documentation. With JavaDoc ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Javadoc) you can generate a html-website from these comments. (I never tried it)
