Explain a calculation with a comment.

Java: Keep the code executable while documenting why a fixed input is used.

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // A minute has 60 seconds.
        final int secondsPerMinute = 60;
        System.out.println(secondsPerMinute);
    }
}

Expected output EXAMPLE

Details

Save as Main.java, compile with javac Main.java, and run java Main. Uses the Java 21 standard library.

Test inputs, results and environment

The exact published code ran in a dedicated Linux test container with prepared inputs. Unprivileged snippet process, external networking disabled, read-only root filesystem, and a fresh temporary working directory. Fixtures and output records are isolated from the application database. Testing covers this example and its stated checks, not every input, operating system, or runtime version. The Linux container shares its host's kernel; this is not a native Windows test.
