<p>If a &lsquo;<samp><span class="samp">#</span></samp>&rsquo; appears as the first character of a line then the whole
line is treated as a comment, but in this case the line could also be
a logical line number directive (see <a href="Comments.html#Comments">Comments</a>) or a preprocessor
control command (see <a href="Preprocessing.html#Preprocessing">Preprocessing</a>).
