Folks acting like Python is the only language without semicolons. 😏
I got tripped up so many time in the last 3 weeks using PHP after years in ML family languages. I am already newlining & it’d be poor style to put more than one statement on a line so what is the point of these semicolons?
The best languages about really embracing punctuation as you would in English is Prolog & Erlang with their periods, semicolons, & commas.
