Condition out

To prevent a section of code from being compiled by surrounding it with a conditional compilation directive whose condition is always false.

The canonical examples of these directives are "#if 0" (or "#ifdef notdef", though some find the latter bletcherous) and "#endif" in C.

Compare comment out.
