R help - Oct 2005 - comment code

Hi All,

In R, can one comment out a block of code at once instead of using "#"
one line at a time? Say, in SAS, one can use /*....*/ to comment out many lines.

Thanks,
Johnny

Try RSiteSearch("comment multiple lines").

Note that R-aware editors can do this for you using #.
