C<number> (<cycle_name>) comment_text
Number: an integer as long as it has not already been used in the file;

Example:
C25 (MY_CYCLE_1) usercycle_1
C26 (SPECIAL CYCLE)
Example: uc.com file - user cycle description
The explanation is based on the continuation of the
example:
For the following two cycles a cycle parameterization is to be newly created:
Programming
PROC MY_CYCLE_1 (REAL PAR1, INT PAR2, CHAR PAR3, STRING[10] PAR4)
The cycle has the following transfer parameters:
PAR1:
PAR2:
PAR3:
PAR4:
...
M17
Programming
PROC SPECIAL CYCLE (REAL VALUE1, INT VALUE2)
The cycle has the following transfer parameters:
VALUE1:
VALUE2:
...
M17
