Hi, Perl doesn't have a multiline comment mark. You can use perldoc marks in order to comment what you want, or include the content in a string, like: Perldoc style: =start Here are the lines you want to comment =cut Or using a string: q/ Here are the lines you want to comment /; The program will work fine, but in the second example, if you use use warnings; it will tell you that you used this string in a void context. If you don't like the warning, you could use: my $zzz = q/ ... /; The first way is prefered, but the second way allows you to comment one line or more lines using the same syntax.
