## 3.1 Line Comments Line comments in AVAP™ are used to add brief annotations or explanations to a specific line of code. These comments begin with the `//` symbol and continue until the end of the line. Everything following `//` is considered a comment and is ignored by the compiler. ```javascript // This is a line comment in AVAP™ int x = 5; // You can also add comments at the end of a line of code ``` Line comments are useful for providing quick clarifications about the code and improving its readability.
