comment out
To surround a section of code with {comment}
{delimiters} or to prefix every line in the section with a
comment marker. This prevents it from being compiled or
interpreted. It is often done to temporarily disable the
code, e.g. during {debugging} or when the code is redundant or
obsolete, but is being left in the source to make the intent
of the active code clearer.
The word "comment" is sometimes replaced with whatever
{syntax} is used to mark comments in the language in question,
e.g. "hash out" ({shell script}, {Perl}), "REM out" ({BASIC}),
etc.
Compare {condition out}.
