this was for C++ {Like we use Full Stop (.) after the end of an english statement, we use semi colon (;) at the end of a program statement. e.g. 1) I am learning to code. 2) cout << "Hello world."; }

It shows the end of the statements in Java. Omitting it will give a compile time error.

Semicolon is needed for parsing the code. Your lines of code look like a 1 line of code for interpreter/compiler, even though you have multiple lines in your code. When prasing comes to the semicolon, interpreter/compiler knows that 'this' string is complete and then checks 'this' string on syntax errors.
