Languages Focus: End of Statement

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.

VB.Net End of Statement

A return marks the end of a statement and you cannot combine statements on a single line of code. You can break a single statement into two or more code lines by using a space and underscore " _".

Syntax Example:
Console.WriteLine("Hello1")
Console.WriteLine("Hello2")
Console.WriteLine("Hello3")

'The following commented code
'on a single line does not work...
'Console.WriteLine("Hello4") Console.WriteLine("Hello5")

'Two or more lines works too with a space+underscore:
Console.WriteLine _
"Hello6";
