The comment field contains text that explains the function of the
statement. You can use comments to describe algorithms, reasons
for selecting particular methods, and parameters passed to
routines. Comments do not affect assembly processing or program
execution.
The comment field must be preceded by a semicolon (;) and can
contain any printable ASCII character. It is terminated by the
end of the line.
A comment can appear on a line by itself. If a comment does
not fit on one line, it can be continued on the next, but the
continuation must be preceded by another semicolon.
In the following source statement example, "Table stores expected
values" is the comment field. Note that the comment field begins
with a semicolon.
EXP: .BLKL 50 ; Table stores expected values
