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.

Sure. What effect do YOU hope to causes or prevent by writing

```
/******************************************/
```

between all of your functions?

I'm normal programmer, by mean that I'm not so expert in C matters to know really if there are particular patterns that have specific meanings for the compiler or not. I know this forum is not for political topics, but by the way I would like to mention something: everyone knows that the affairs are not well between US and some other countries like "Russia", and they are using US products like C compilers, so with some way we have a doubt that US developed compilers with a way to accept kind of messages or something like that, so my comment has no meaning to the compiler except if I knew the secret patterns or I do it accidentally.
