title: What's the name for this comment structure?
body: <p>I'm teaching a C++ programming course for the first time in a while and, somewhat based on the elementary book examples, I find that students want all of their comments to be end-of-line like so:</p>
  
  <pre><code>for (int count = 1; count &lt;= days; count++) {   // Loop for each day
      organisms += organisms * increase;          // Compute organisms
      cout &lt;&lt; organisms &lt;&lt; endl;                  // Print out organisms
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In contrast, I'm trying to get them to use dedicated comment lines that summarize several lines of code for this purpose:</p>
  
  <pre><code>// Update &amp; display organisms for each day
  for (int count = 1; count &lt;= days; count++) { 
      organisms += organisms * increase;          
      cout &lt;&lt; organisms &lt;&lt; endl;                  
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there a proper name for this latter, not-end-of-line comment styling?</p>
