Comments

For comments, the "#" (hash) and ";" (semicolon) can be used as the first character in a line. If the comment characters are not the first character in the line, the entire line is interpreted quite normally, which leads to an error message. The interpreter knows the number of tokens to be extracted per line and only extracts that number, i.e. the interpreter ignores everything after the last token of a line that is separated by a separator (blank or tabulator).
