Inserting Comments

Your JavaScript experience equips you with everything you need to know about adding comments to an iOS SDK source code file. Inline comments begin with two forward slashes (//). These can appear at the beginning of a line or following the end of a statement line.

Comment blocks are contained by the /* and */ delimiter sequence. Comment blocks may be any number of lines. See the tops of any class file generated by Xcode for examples.

One significant advantage to a compiled language is that you can type comments into your source code until your fingers bleed, and they have no bearing on the size of your application binary. Additionally, unlike comments added to client-side JavaScript, your app source code comments will not be visible to consumers of your app.
