Everything between `/*` and `*/` is considered a comment and is ignored by the compiler. ```javascript /* This is a block comment in AVAP™ that spans multiple lines of code. It is used to explain extensive sections of code or to temporarily disable entire blocks of code. */ ``` Block comments are ideal for providing detailed explanations about complex sections of code or for temporarily disabling entire blocks of code during debugging.
