General ⇒ Commenting a complete Paragraph

[pallav]

While typing the source file we sometimes want to make a comment which will not appear in the typeset version. For this we start the line with % and for this the whole line will be ignored during typesetting and not shown in the out put file.

A single % sometimes cannot ignore for the case of a long paragraph (with texts and equations). Instead of typing % at the start of each line of the paragraph, is there any alternative and easiest way to ignore the paragraph? If yes, how?

You could use the comment package or the verbatim package. Both provide environments to comment out whole paragraphs and more.
