End of Statement (Java and Delphi Cross Reference Guide)

By Mike Prestwood

Java versus Delphi: A side by side comparison between Java and Delphi.

Language Basics

Language basics is kind of a catch all for absolute beginner stuff. The items (common names) I chose for language basics is a bit random and include items like case sensitivity, commenting, declaring variables, etc.

End of Statement

[Other Languages]

Languages Focus

In coding languages, common End of statement specifiers include a semicolon and return (others exist too). Also of concern when studying a language is can you put two statements on a single code line and can you break a single statement into two or more code lines.

Java: ;

Syntax Example:

System.out.println("Hello");

Delphi: ;

Object Pascal uses a semicolon ";" as an end of statement specifier and you can put multiple statements on a single line of code and put a single statement on two or more code lines if you wish.

Syntax Example: 1 certification question.

WriteLn('Hello1');
WriteLn('Hello2');
WriteLn('Hello3');
 
//Same line works too:
WriteLn('Hello4');  WriteLn('Hello5');
 
//Two or more lines works too:
WriteLn
  ('Hello6');
