Comments

In Solstice, there are 3 ways to do comments:

// (Single-Line Comment)

Writing // tells Solstice to ignore the rest of the line.

Some examples:

puts 2 + 2 // should be 4

// This variable holds the status code from checkStatus()
statusCode = checkStatus("file.txt")

This comment should be used when writing your code’s logic in Solstice.

/* */ (Multiline Comment)

Any text in between /* and */ will be ignored. These comments should be used to document functions and structs (we’ll get to those later.)

Example:

/*
    Adds two numbers together.
*/
def add(int a, int b) int {
    return a + b
}

# (Shebang Comment)

Use this comment only for using Solstice as a script interpreter in a shebang. Effectively the same as //, but we recommend using // over #.
