When a statement is followed by a semicolon, this means that there is going to be another statement following the first statement which is related to it closely enough that it should not become a separate sentence.
An SQL statement is a complete set of clauses which returns a value and ends with a semicolon(;) A statement is made up of several clauses Ex: select * from person where f_name='me'; In this ex ' select * from person where f_name='me';' is the statement and select*, from person, where f_name= are the clauses
In MATLAB, a semicolon is used to suppress the output of a command in the command window. When you place a semicolon at the end of a line, MATLAB executes the command without displaying the result, which helps keep the output clean and manageable, especially when working with large datasets or performing multiple operations. If you want to see the output, simply omit the semicolon.
I wouldn't use a semicolon in a conditional (if) sentence. Semicolons can join two independent clauses without a conjunction. The "if" clause in a conditional sentence is dependent, not independent.
The quotation mark would go before the semicolon, because the semicolon represents the beginning of a new thought in the same sentence.
You should not use a semicolon to separate two independent clauses that are not closely related in meaning. Additionally, it is incorrect to use a semicolon before conjunctions like "and," "but," or "or" when they connect independent clauses. Semicolons should also be avoided when connecting dependent clauses or items in a list that already contain commas.
semicolon ';' (Not applicable for block-statements)
A single semicolon standing alone does not form a complete statement.
Why semicolon? Tradition.What does it do? Terminates a single statement, eg:i+= 3; /* expression is a single statement */{ i= 3; --j; } /* no semicolon after the compound statement */
For clasesses it defines from which class to inherit. :: means area of visibility in certain name space.
You mean this: if;Syntax error.Or you mean: if (condition);Perfectly legal; if the condition is true, nothing happens. If the condition is false, the else-statement is executed (if there is an else-statement).
anything ending in semicolon/;
int main (void) { if(printf("Print whatever you want")) { } }
Semicolon, in some languages. Line-end in some others.
No. That would be a syntax error. Only a right semicolon (;) can go at the end of a statement.
The semicolon key is considered a punctuation key on a keyboard. It is typically used to insert a semicolon (;) into text, which serves as a punctuation mark to connect closely related ideas or to separate items in a complex list. In programming, the semicolon often functions as a statement terminator in various languages.
Because that is the defined statement terminator of the language.
Any teacher will expect you to answer by saying a semicolon (;), but this is not strictly true. First of all, the definition of a "line of code" varies from teacher to teacher and textbook to textbook. Second, even the Java Language Specification lists several types of Java statements which do not need to end in a semicolon.In general, a complete Java statement will end in either of semicolon or a closing block brace.
