Does EOL == EOS in any other language besides BASIC?

Question

BASIC and its variants Visual Basic and VB.NET are the only programming languages I know of that treat the end of line character as a statement terminator (I'm excluding batch files and command scripts from the domain of programming languages). I'm curious: is there any other language that uses this convention, or does BASIC stand alone?

Answer 1

Javascript in most cases. Javascript has implied simicolons.

Most of the just for fun languages: Brainfuck, LOLcode, whitespace (not sure on this one), etc.
Assembly does also as someone already pointed out.

Most modern languages do not treat EOL as an EOS.

Answer 2

Off the top of my head:

• JavaScript's "automatic semicolon insertion" means it treats newlines as end-of-statement when certain rules apply.
• Ruby treats newlines as statement terminators, unless there's an operator in front of it in which case it continues the statement on the next line.

Answer 3

• FORTRAN - there's a continuation character if you need multiple lines
• All assembly languages that I'm aware of
• MS-DOS .BAT scripting language

Answer 4

Here's a good breakdown of languages and their statement terminators. According to that page, these languages are newline terminated:

• AutoHotkey
• GFA BASIC
• BASIC / Visual Basic / Visual Basic .NET
• Fortran
• Ruby
• Python
• AppleScript
• Windows PowerShell
• Boo
• MATLAB (result displayed)

Answer 5

Several more not mentioned:

• Tcl. Although it supports semicolons as statement separators the standard/preferred convention is to write code without semicolons.

• Forth

• Haskell

• APL

update: Ah.. forgot. Almost all shell "languages" do this:

• sh/bash

• csh/tcsh

• ksh
