I'm learning to program in C and in my stage, the best form to use correctly the comments is writing good comments from the beginning.

As the comments are not just for that one understands better the code but others too, I want to know the views of all of you to reach a consensus.

So what I want is that the most experienced users edit the following code as you please. (If it's unnecessary, delete it; If it's wrong, correct it; If needed, add more)

Thus there'll be multiple answers with different syntax and the responses with the most votes will be taken as referring when commenting.

The code to copy, paste and edit to your pleasure is:

(And I remark again, just import the comments, not the code)

/*
This programs find 1 number in 1 file.

The file is binary type and has integers in series.
The number is integer type and it's entered from the keyboard.

When finished the program, a poster will show the results:
Saying if the number is in the file or not.
