Multi-Line Comments in Ruby?

Question

How can I comment multiple lines in Ruby?

Answer 1

#!/usr/bin/env ruby  =begin Every body mentioned this way to have multiline comments.  The =begin and =end must be at the beginning of the line or it will be a syntax error. =end  puts "Hello world!"  <<-DOC Also, you could create a docstring. which... DOC  puts "Hello world!"  "..is kinda ugly and creates a String instance, but I know one guy with a Smalltalk background, who does this."  puts "Hello world!"  ## # most # people # do # this   __END__  But all forgot there is another option. Only at the end of a file, of course.
