#### 2.7.2 Block Comments

Entire blocks of code can be commented by enclosing the code between matching ‘`#{`’ and ‘`#}`’ or ‘`%{`’ and ‘`%}`’ markers. For example,

         function quick_countdown
           # Count down for main rocket engines
           disp(3);
          #{
           disp(2);
           disp(1);
          #}
           disp("Blast Off!");  # Rocket leaves pad
         endfunction

will produce a very quick countdown from '3' to 'Blast Off' as the lines "`disp(2);`" and "`disp(1);`" won't be executed.

The block comment markers must appear alone as the only characters on a line (excepting whitespace) in order to be parsed correctly.
