Up: CR16 Syntax

##### 9.7.2.1 Special Characters

The presence of a ‘`#`’ on a line indicates the start of a comment that extends to the end of the current line. If the ‘`#`’ appears as the first character of a line, the whole line is treated as a comment, but in this case the line can also be a logical line number directive (see Comments) or a preprocessor control command (see Preprocessing).

The ‘`;`’ character can be used to separate statements on the same line.
