The following example is identical to the previous example except for the addition of the

parentheses

() operator and illustrates once again that when used with the parentheses ()

operator, the comma (

,) operator returns the value of the last expression in the series:

v = 0;

z = 0;

v = (v + 4, z++, v + 6);

trace(v); // output: 6

trace(z); // output: 1

between the comment delimiter (//) and the end-of-line character are interpreted as a

comment and ignored by the ActionScript interpreter.

lines as comments:

// Record the X position of the ball movie clip.

ballX = ball._x;

// Record the Y position of the ball movie clip.

ballY = ball._y;

// Record the X position of the bat movie clip.

batX = bat._x;

// Record the Y position of the bat movie clip.

batY = bat._y;
