13 * A brief history of JavaDoc-style (C-style) banner comments.
14 *
15 * This is the typical JavaDoc-style C-style "banner" comment. It starts with
16 * a forward slash followed by some number, n, of asterisks, where n > 2. It's
17 * written this way to be more "visible" to developers who are reading the
18 * source code.
19 *
20 * Often, developers are unaware that this is not (by default) a valid Doxygen
21 * comment block!
22 *
23 * However, as long as JAVADOC_BLOCK = YES is added to the Doxyfile, it will
24 * work as expected.
25 *
26 * This style of commenting behaves well with clang-format.
27 *
28 * @param theory Even if there is only one possible unified theory. it is just a
29 * set of rules and equations.
