If you could use NLP to verify the comment, then what would the point of the comment be? Comments are for those aspects of a program that are invisible to the compiler and IDE, the intent.



Maybe my view of NLP is more sci-fi than reality, but I think you're missing what I meant. If you can use NLP to prove that your comment - ie the intent - which IS invisible to the compiler and IDE, then that might be cool. Practical, probably not. But I'd still be very impressed at the implications if this was possible within some error margin.
