There are many languages out there where we do not need any semicolon to end a line! Such as : Python, Ruby, HTML, QBASIC, Lua, Visual Basic, etc ...

Python. Lisp. Closure. (There's many more) Of course all these languages still need something to determine the end of a statement, Python for example uses white spaces.

@Harshit Gupta, Nice Point! Consider HTML! It depends on end tag and not any ending semicolon! Other Available are Python and Ruby and PHP also!
