i do find the comments at the top of a class heading, that state the singular purpose of the class, to be useful; outside of that im generally anti-comment #codeAsDocumentation #selfDocumentingCode #singleResponsibilityPrinciple

I tend to avoid comments. I prefer self-explanatory code. But some types of comments can indeed be helpful. For example, if I wrote some code in a convoluted way for performance reasons, I'd document these reasons in a comment. ❓ What comments do you find useful (or useless)?
