Line 56: This is actually more dangerous than explicit closing when you use UTF-8 encoding. For example, if the last character on the comment line is a 'é' (e with acute accent), and if the source parser is miss-configured and thinks the encoding is a one-byte encoding (e.g. ISO-8859-1) rather than UTF-8, then the compiler won't see the end of line and treat the next line of code following the comment as a continuation of the comment. So one line of code won't be executed! ~~I suppose a good compiler could add a check to enforce that all comments end with a character whose code is in the range 0 to 127.~~ [[User:Bohan\|Bohan]] ([[User talk:Bohan\|talk]]) 15:32, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
