Bad Comments in JavaScript

---

It is better to avoid the multiline comments /* */ Especially as most editors support the commenting out of a whole section of lines with just one keystroke.

examples/js/bad_comments.js

console.log("code 1");
// comment

console.log("code 2")
/* more
   comment
*/

console.log("code 3")
/*
 console.log("/* hello */")
*/
console.log("code 4")

  SyntaxError: unterminated string literal
