What is the ;

What is the ; symbol in lua?

[Dealman]

It really doesn't serve a purpose in Lua, though some people that generally program in languages such as C++ or C# will often make use of the semicolon even when scripting in Lua simply because it becomes sort of a habit.

In terms of other languages where using the semicolon is indeed mandatory, it generally marks the end of a line or block of code. For example, think of it like this;

local myVariable = 10; outputChatBox(tostring(myVariable)) 

To be the same as this;

local myVariable = 10 
outputChatBox(tostring(myVariable)) 

It's not necessary and it doesn't cause any syntax errors, so it's entirely up to personal preference.
