Hi,
Perl doesn't have a multiline comment mark.
You can use perldoc marks in order to comment what you want, or include the
content in a string, like:
Perldoc style:
=start
Here
are the
lines you
want to comment
=cut
Or using a string:
q/
Here are
the
lines you
want to comment
/;
The program will work fine, but in the second example, if you use
use warnings;
it will tell you that you used this string in a void context.
If you don't like the warning, you could use:
my $zzz = q/
...
/;
The first way is prefered, but the second way allows you to comment one line
or more lines using the same syntax.
