Getting error on commented line

Question

``` class k{ public static void main(String[] args) { //('\u000d'); } } ``` In class k after main i have commented out line number 3 but still getting error unclosed character literal ,what could be the reason for it?

Accepted Answer

Unicode characters are parsed very early in the Java compilation, anyway `\u000d` isn't a valid character.

```
// The other style comments work.
/*('\u000d'); */
```

Edit

\u000d is converted into a newline, which ends your comment...

```
//('\u000d');
```

gets converted into

```
    //('
') // <-- bare line with ')
```

which isn't a valid character constant.
