Above the code that implements it is best. That allows the reader to go from generalitites to specifics by reading top to bottom, just like an outline, or a story, or any other type of explanatory writing.
I think you should your the entire class to turn in an assignment with the comments below the code they comment. They can't mark down for it since the professor provides examples comemnted that way. If they actually read your source code, they'll probably try to mark it down though.

I can't. I found love in an elevator.

I did that once, but it didn't last. Too many ups and downs.

Last time I would walk this way, was because I found love in an elevator.

As I'm sure most people have noticed, today is the 11th November, Armistice Day. It has just been 11:00 in the UK, and I stopped to observe the two minutes silence. It occured to me that, at least in my office, I was the only who did.
Does anyone else here stop for two minutes at 11:00, whenever it reaches that time for you? I know we used to do it every year at school, not enforced, but a case of 'if you don't want to observe it, respect those who do', but I've noticed a lot of people don't bother once they've left.

The whole office here stopped for two minutes, whether they would have all done it if there hadn't been an announcement remains unknown.
I always stop for two minutes, like you I used to in school and haven't stopped.

Incidentally, first armistice day without a WWI Veteran.
They have all gone now, it is history.

We observed 2 minutes silence at 11:00 in my office, although I could still hear mouse clicks and typing sounds. To be honest, I wouldn't have remembered if my boss hadn't made an announcement.

That's where a lump hammer is needed, one swift blow to the fingers should prevent it happening again.

I was appalled at the number of people who carried on typing during the silence. We had a signal that it was starting so there was no excuse whatsoever just a complete lack of respect.

Company wide silence here. It wasn't announced in our office (the loudspeaker system's bust here), but we knew it was 11am.

In Italy we're more inclined to do a similar thing on April 25, as it is the day recognized as the end of combats between the Resistance and nazis/fascists, started a few days earlier in 1945 as a nation-wide insurrection. Actually, it's more like a feast, very much like on June 2, Day of the Republic.
I guess things turned out to be a bit different on the other side. The end of the war was just the beginning of the reconstruction and, basically, a new era altogether for Italy.
You know, I feel somewhat guilty, deep in my person, that my Country participated at such a terrible war on the wrong side (or at all).

I don't think you have any reason to think so - nor, on that hand, do the modern day Germans, but I was told that a lot of them still had thoughts or issues like yours
I personally love your country and the Italian people, and would never ever dream of making a comment like 'well, you were on the wrong side' or such .. ok, I'll admit, we joke amongst ourselves if we're meeting a German 'just dont mention the war' (think that was from a Fawlty Towers episode), and I did make a comment to 'home' when I was in Italy a few weeks ago about Mussolini's influence still being felt in that the trains and ferries (around Lago di Como/Bellagio) still running on time.
(interestingly for me, I drove through the village (Dongo) on the western side of Lago di Como where Mussolini was executed after having been caught with his lover trying to escape to Switzerland)
.. but no, Dario, you cant help what has gone before you, and I dont know anyone who would try to persecute modern day Italians or Germans for it - hopefully we have all learn't and moved on, and maybe the armistice/silence 'lest we forget' will remind people we don't want to go back there (ok, so Im glossing over WWII, Vietnam, IRAQ etc ... )

Last year I was driving along a motorway at 11:00. I was listening to it being announced on the radio, and all the traffic slowed down to 50mph.
It wasn't particularly busy, so there wasn't a need to slow up or anything, it just happened. The outside lane was totally clear, just no one was using it.

If I'm driving, and it's safe to do so, I pull over to the side of the road to observe the silence. I schedule meetings so that they don't overlap. It's more poignant this year, now that the last of our soldiers has died.

Wasn't even aware of it. Nobody stopped here anyway. Looking back at my timesheet I was in a phone conference at the time.
