        Multiline comments can be preceeded or followed by 'empty' syntax, which will be ignored.

        * ```null```

        * ```""```

        * ```''```

    $FilePattern = '\.c$'

    # We start off by declaring a number of regular expressions:

    $startComment = '/\*' # * Start Comments ```\*```

    $endComment   = '\*/' # * End Comments   ```/*```

    $Whitespace   = '[\s\n\r]{0,}'

    # * IgnoredContext ```String.empty```, ```null```, blank strings and characters

    $IgnoredContext = "(?<ignore>(?>$("null", '""', "''" -join '|'))\s{0,}){0,1}"

    # * StartRegex     ```$IgnoredContext + $StartComment + '{' + $Whitespace```

    $StartPattern = "(?<PSStart>${IgnoredContext}${startComment}\{$Whitespace)"

    # * EndRegex       ```$whitespace + '}' + $EndComment + $ignoredContext```

    $EndPattern   = "(?<PSEnd>$Whitespace\}${endComment}\s{0,}${IgnoredContext})"
