Yeah, but not in javascript. It's not necessary to write an` ; `at the end unless you are writing two lines of code in the same line. I mean var x = 100 console.log(x); console.log(x+2)

MD. Ferdous Ibne Abu Bakar Yeah it's important and the reason why your code is running well is because a lot of IDEs have the automating system wich can run the code without using semicolon . But it's important to use it in order to get used on it. Sorry for my bad english too😅😅😅

Yeah, like Simba says that it's useful in writing 2 codes on the same line, it's true. But in languages like JAVA it is NECESSARY, without it your code will crash, so keep habit of using semicolons👍🏻

In low-level languages like C, the statements are separated by a semicolon instead of a new-line, unlike Python.
