In python and other languages, you can write a multiline description like this: def func(): ''' this is my function description ''' pass How do you do this in MQL4?

You use two forward slashes, for example void function() { // Description } If you want to use multi-line descriptions, you can block out portions of code, for example void function() { /* Description line 1 Description line 2 */ }
