Experiment No – 3(a)
Aim: Write a Program to identify single and multiline comments
Theory:

Types of comments in programs:


 Single Line Comment: Comments preceded by a Double Slash (‘//’)
 Multi-line Comment: Comments starting with (‘/*’) and ending with (‘*/’).
Code:

#include <bits/stdc++.h>

using namespace std;

void comment(string s){

if (s.size()>=2 && s[0] == '/' && s[1] == '/') {

cout << "Single line Comment";

return;

if (s.size()>=4 && s[s.size() - 2] == '*'

&& s[s.size() - 1] == '/' && s[0] == '/' && s[1] == '*') {

cout << "Multiline Comment";

return;

cout << "Not a Comment"; Output:


}

int main(){

string s;

cout<<"Enter the string "<<endl;

getline(cin,s);

comment(s);

return 0;

}

Experiment No – 3(a)
Aim: Write a Program to remove single and multiline comments
Theory:
 Given a C++ program as input, remove the comments from it. ‘source’ is a vector where the i-th line of the
source code is the source[i]. This represents the result of splitting the source code string by the newline
character \n. In C++, we can create two types of comments, i.e., Line Comments, Block Comments.
 The string ‘\’ denotes the line comment, which means the string next to it on the right will be ignored by
the program.
 The string ‘\* and *\’ is a multiline comment representing the string starting from ‘\* till the *\’ will be
ignored.
 The first useful comment takes precedence over others: if the string // occurs in a block comment, it is
ignored. Similarly, if the string /* occurs in a line or block comment, it is also ignored. If a certain line of
code is empty after removing comments, you must not output that line − each string in the answer list will
be non-empty.

Code:
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

string Rcomments(string s){

int n = s.length();

string ans;

bool single_c = false;

bool multi_c = false;

for (int i=0; i<n; i++){

if (single_c == true && s[i] == '\n') single_c = false;

else if (multi_c == true && s[i] == '*' && s[i+1] == '/') multi_c = false, i++;

else if (single_c || multi_c) continue;

else if (s[i] == '/' && s[i+1] == '/') single_c = true, i++;

else if (s[i] == '/' && s[i+1] == '*')multi_c = true, i++;

else ans += s[i]; }

return ans; }

int main(){

string s;

cout<<"Enter The String 1 : "<<endl;

getline(cin,s);

cout<<" Output : ";

cout<<Rcomments(s)<<endl;

getline(cin,s);

cout<<" Output : ";

cout<<Rcomments(s);
