I'm ok at writing formulas, but I always need to look up stuff, and it takes me a while to do basic things as it doesn't come naturally. 

Which means when I go back to an old formula, it takes me quite a while to understand how it works. 

I know in other forms of coding, you can add notes that don't affect the code - i.e. to help another programmer understand what something is doing. 

Is there a way to do that in the formula fields?

There is no comment feature in the code
You could send a request to Airtable

@Sho correctly notes that you can't do it in the formula code itself, but I'm wondering if you could use the field description for what you're trying to do? The field description can be up to 20K characters.

Not a bad idea PressGo, though it's still not the most elegant solution. Thank you, a shame airtable doesn't have the option yet.
