Hello!
In the guidelines I've read:

"Comment your code. Entire commented lines should begin with # and one space.
Short comments can be placed after code preceded by two spaces, #, and
then one space. "

Which guidelines are those? They seem reasonable, but they put more restrictions on comments than the parser enforces. In particular, the spaces are irrelevant. If you have a # symbol in the line, not in a quoted string, it starts a comment that runs to the end of the line.

Just wondering if there is no way to comment something out "in the
middle" of a line? Example:
Original code:
mystrings<-c("a","b","c")

Desired commented code:
mystrings<-c("a", # want "b" to be commented out, but not "c" # "c")
So that it is read as: mystrings<-c("a","c")

Not possible?
Thanks!
