between your functions? Or is there anybody else who benefits from it?

"Do you think it helps the compiler if you put these"
Are you serious? maybe it's useful for compilers with some way.

Precisely in what way? I am not kidding. I am seriously asking the question: In what way may a C or C++ compiler benefit from lines between functions which contain only comments consisting of nothing else than asterisks?

Seriously and accurately, if you meant that, we don't know how developers of C compilers programmed their compilers, for example, maybe there's a secret way the developers programmed their compiler so that a special pattern of comments can have a particular meaning to the compilers. We don't know! maybe it's true.
