To do commenting in Razor view is a little different than C# comments. In C# we use **(“//")** for commenting but in Razor, we will define comments like this **("@* *@").**

## The syntax for Commenting in Razor View

Syntax of comments in [asp.net](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/934/default-folders-available-inside-the-asp-dot-net-application-folder) razor view will be shown like below

```
 
@* It is a Razor multiline comment *@ 
```

These razor view syntax (“ @* *@") tells that which code inside this will be ignored from being executed. **[The syntax is common for both vb.net and C# language using Razor.](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/155786/what-is-html-helper-in-asp-dot-net-mvc-razor-view)**

## Shortcut to Comment Block

The shortcut for Razor Commenting is similar to C# shortcut which would be shown

- For Comment the block use ( Ctrl E, C)
- For Uncomment the block use ( Ctrl E, U)

The examples will show how to use razor comments in asp.net [MVC](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/155803/define-cache-profile-in-mvc) applications
