#3.1 Kotlin Basic Syntax Tutorial: COMMENTS Part-1 Video Lecture | Kotlin Tutorial for Beginners: Learn Kotlin in easy language - Back-End Programming

hi disappearing Siddarth once again
welcome to the next video of Cortland
programming series now in this video we
will quickly get an overview of the
basic syntax of courtland's programming
such as we will quickly have a look on
the functions variables plus syntax
constructors and also comments now this
video is just a kick start tutorial for
the upcoming videos in the upcoming
videos we will talk about functions
variables classes and so on in a lot
more detail in the separate modules such
as we will talk about variables in the
next module further we will talk about
functions separately in another module
so this video will simply give you an
overview of the basic syntax of the
cortland programming so as to make you
comfortable with the cortland language
so here inside the IntelliJ IDE first
let us check out how do we write the
comment line in case of Kotlin so in
order to write the inline comments we
can simply use forward slash forward
slash and then say this is a in line
comment right like we write the comments
in any other programming language now
similarly in order to write the multiple
lines of comments you can simply use
forward slash Astrix Asterix and then
forward slash now in between these two
asterisks you can simply write your
multiple lines of comment this is the
command line one and this is the command
line two and so on you can define
multiple comments right now what is the
benefit of comment in comments you can
simply write a documentation such as let
us define the comment for this main
function so here I have simply written
this is the main function entry point of
the application so whatever statements
that you will write within these two
asterisks and forward slash that
compiler won't execute these lines of
code right this will be ignored during
the code compliation fine
