<p><a name="index-line-comment-character_002c-i860-1077"></a><a name="index-i860-line-comment-character-1078"></a>The presence of a &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">#</span></samp>&rsquo; appearing anywhere on a line indicates the
start of a comment that extends to the end of that line.
<p>If a &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">#</span></samp>&rsquo; appears as the first character of a line then the whole
line is treated as a comment, but in this case the line can also be a
logical line number directive (see <a href="Comments.html#Comments">Comments</a>) or a preprocessor
control command (see <a href="Preprocessing.html#Preprocessing">Preprocessing</a>).

line.
