Actually I use comments in a fairly unique way. I pseudocode what I want to do in comments, and then code around the comments so I can keep track of where I am at and what I am trying to accomplish. Removing comments later may make the code more readable, but for code in progress I find I save a LOT more time pseudocoding first so I can concentrate on program flow. I do the actual "how do I go about doing this" thinking later. I only have the energy to power up one side of my brain at a time. I burned out some circuits a long time ago. Another story.

Comments. Don't put in comment lines - they only slow down trying to
read the actual code. Code, especially xtalk, should be readable by
itself. If your code needs comments then it isn't well written.


Although I agree with you to some degree, I feel that comments are necessary to identify certain "blocks" of functionality; not necessarily individual
lines, or for certain exceptions for the next programmer, like:
