COMMENTS IN PROGRAMMMING

Programmers use comments in their codes in order to make it more readable and understandable. It reduces the number of WTF in a program because you tend to still understand your codes even after a very long time :-). Commenting in programs also makes collaboration easier because collaborators understand the functions of each lines of the code.
