Etymology

The term 'rem' comes from the word 'remark', which has origins rooted in the Latin word 'remarcฤre', meaning 'to mark again or to remark'. In the context of computing and programming, it was informalized and abbreviated to 'rem' to denote comments in code. The use of this abbreviation started gaining popularity during the early days of programming languages, particularly in languages such as BASIC and early DOS commands. Its adoption has continued as a standard convention regardless of the increasing complexity of programming, allowing developers to keep readable and maintainable code through effective documentation practices.
