Scala Comments

The scala comments are statements which are not executed by the compiler or interpreter. The comments can be used to provide information or explanation about the variable, method, class or any statement. It can also be used to hide program code details.

In scala, there are three types of comments

Single line comment
Multiline comment
Documentation comment

   def main(args: Array[String]) {
       var a = 1           // Here, a is a variable
       println(a)     
    }
}

object MainObject {
   def main(args: Array[String]) {
       var a = 1           
       println(a)     
    }
    /*
    In the main method, we have created a variable named a
    and printed it
    */
}
