Single-line comments in Common Lisp follow a couple of conventions:
;;;; A short title for a block of code
;;; A longer description of a block of code
;; Describe the code below this line
; Describe the code before the semi-colon (;) on this line
Additionally, multi-line comments are possible using #|
and |#
:
#|
This entire block of text is a comment
and can span several lines!
How cool is that?!
