# rem

## Syntax

    rem comments can be written here

## Description

The rem command indicates the start of a "remark" in your program, and all remarks are skipped by the compiler. You can use remarks to provide a better description of what your program is doing. It is good practice to make remarks on a regular basis.

An alternative to using the rem command is to place // at the start of a line.

## Example

    print ( "here is some text" )
    rem this is a comment and does not exist in your compiled program
