+Lets start with a few examples.
+<p>
+<center>
+<table border=2 width="80%" bgcolor=ivory>
+<tr>
+<td>
+<pre>
+
+ main()
+ {
+
+ int Counter=0; /* Initalise Counter */
+
+ /* a comment */
+
+ /*
+ * Another comment
+ */
+
+ /*****************
+ *
+ * Final comment.
+ *
+ *****************/
+ }
+</pre>
+</td>
+</tr>
+</table>
+</center>
+<p>
+<hr>
+<p>
+A comment starts with a <b>/*</b> and
+ends with <b>*/</b>. Comments started in this way can span multiple
+lines but cannot be nested.
+For example:
+<p>
+<center>
+<table border=2 width="80%" bgcolor=ivory>
+<tr>
+<td>
+<pre>
+
+ main()
+ {
+ int Count = 0; /* Initalise
+ * Counter to 0 */
+
+ /* /* Invalid comment */ */
+ }
+</pre>
+</td>
+</tr>
+</table>
+</center>
+<p>
+This will give a syntax error, because the last line
+contains nested comments.

+C++ offers a solution to
