In what ways can you comment in CoffeeScript?
The documentation say you can use three hash symbols to start and close a comment block:
###
Comments
go
here
###
I've found that I can sometimes use the following two formats
`// backticks allow for straight-JavaScript,
// but the closing backtick can't be on a comment line (I think?)
`
Are there a simpler way to insert short comments in CoffeeScript?
Do NOT use this style**
Since this is getting a lot of views, I want to emphasize that
/* Comment goes here */
produces a MATH error when the /* is on its own line.
As Trevor pointed out in a comment on the question, this is a regular expression, NOT a comment!
Use a single # sign
# like this
One character seems pretty minimal ;)
Also:
###
This block comment (useful for ©-Copyright info) also gets
passed on to the browsers HTML /* like this! */
