Comments
This page describes how to use comments in Cypher®.
A single line comment begins with double slash (//
) and continues to the end of the line.
A multi-line comment begins with a slash and asterisk (/*
) and continues until it ends with an asterisk and a slash ('*/').
Comments do not execute, they are for humans to read.
Examples:
MATCH (n) RETURN n //This is an end of line comment
MATCH (n)
//This is a whole line comment
RETURN n
MATCH (n) /* This is a multi line comment,
the comment continues on this line
but it ends on this line. */
RETURN n
MATCH (n) WHERE n.property = '//This is NOT a comment' RETURN n
