      Comments - Block

      Block comments in Apex are used to add explanations that span multiple lines. They begin with /* and end with */. Everything between these markers is ignored by the compiler.

      Example

      /*
        This is a block comment.
        It can span multiple lines and is useful for
        providing detailed explanations of complex code.
      */
      String systemStatus = 'All systems go!';
