exit()

exit()
echo 1;
Will fail.
Why?

A:
The first is correct syntax , the later isn't. If more than one command is provided, they have to be separated via ;. echo 1 wouldn't be executed anyway.

The semicolon terminates a statement, although it's not required if it's the last statement.

The semicolon doesn't terminate a statement. It **separates** two of them. That's why you can omit the semicolon at the end of a script/block.

This:
exit()
will work only if it is at the end
But
exit()
echo 1;
In this case it is not on the end.

@Felix `exit` is always the last statement that runs but not usually the last statement in the file. It's kinda pointless exiting or dieing as the script is about to end normally

A:
You can do exit(1); to set the status/severity of the reason for using it. Or you can use exit("1"); and it will print the string. The difference being that the first is an integer and the second is a string.
