What's difference between java doc comment and multiline comment ...i feel that both are same

Answer 1

Multiline comments can contain any number of lines while the other can contain just 1

Answer 2

The way they explain it in the course makes it sound like it's the same thing, and Javadoc comments really are just fancy multi-line comments. In Eclipse, Javadocs can be added before methods to give additional information about the method.

Answer 3
