+// code. To avoid this, append extra characters immediately after the opening
+// comment delimiter: for example, use `///` or `/**` in C or C++, `##` in
+// Python, etc. See also the example at the end of this file, which includes an
+// improved alternative to commenting out code using preprocessor directives for

+// 1.  Comments continued onto another line don't look like a comment; this

+// 2.  The backslash-newline in a comment creates a
+//     [hard line break](https://spec.commonmark.org/0.31.2/#hard-line-breaks)
+//     in Markdown, which means inserting a hard line break this way in an

+//     include them on following lines.
+//     ```
+// 3.  The CodeChat Editor web-to-code function produces incorrect results in

+//     would have to look for a backslash newline only in C/C++-like languages.
