There is no point in putting in comments in that fasion. It would be
much more useful to indicate what a count of 28 means.

if (count == 28)  // end of line 1
{

}


or perhaps


if (count == END_LINE1)
{

}

where the constant END_LINE1 is #define'd to 28 elsewhere.


In other words, don't tell (presumably) competent C programmers what
the C code does, they can get that from the code itself. Tell them
(and yourself) why it's doing it.
