Remarks:

The most common comment types are line and s-expression comment (using ; and #; respectively).

It is common to use from 1 to 3 semi colons depending on the type of comment made. Refer to ???

Single line comments

; We make single line comments by writing out text after a semicolon

Block comments

#| We make
block comments
like this |#

S-expression comments

#;(define (commented-out-function x)
    (print (string-append "This entire "
            "s-expression is commented out!")))

Comments in at-exps

When a module is using at expressions, such as:

#lang at-exp racket/base

or

#lang scribble/manual

You have access to the following types of comments:

@;{Block text that goes
   until the closing
   brace.}

As well as:

@; Single line text.

Note that if you are using a language that only uses at-exps (such as most scribble languages), you will need ot use one of these types of comments.
