1 Comments in 'bc' start with the characters '/*' and end with the
1 characters '*/'. Comments may start anywhere and appear as a single
1 space in the input. (This causes comments to delimit other input items.
1 For example, a comment can not be found in the middle of a variable
1 name.) Comments include any newlines (end of line) between the start
1 and the end of the comment.

1 To support the use of scripts for 'bc', a single line comment has
1 been added as an extension. A single line comment starts at a '#'
1 character and continues to the next end of the line. The end of line
1 character is not part of the comment and is processed normally.
