You can slam semicolons at the ends of lines in Python, interpreter doesnβt care
P sure you can do multiple lines in one line by slamming semicolons too, though idr for sure and I canβt be arsed to check

Don't cry, babe -- at least I didn't say Visual Basic.
I do not ask your pardon, Master Elrond, for the Black Speech of Mordor Microsoft may yet be heard in every corner of the West!
I understand the hatred of VB generally but as a non-programmer (just technically literate and knows enough to be dangerous with a computer) writing VB (in the form of VBA) was extremely accessible and surprisingly intuitive - far more than I ever experienced when dabbling in python, JavaScript and Rust.
(What I made was unhinged, unholy and should never see the light of day. It made a normally talkative .net programmer go silent in shock yet it is responsible for managing the project resourcing in a big department in the company... But it was quite fun and it does work...)
My joke comment was based on love! I actually started my professional career with VB (3 no less) and it was an excellent language for what it was good for, mainly building good UIs. Sure, it could be -- and was -- used to create unearthly horrors, but that's true of every language and platform.
In a different language that uses whitespace:
proc blank_map*:void =
mines_placed = 0
row8 = newseq[uint8](width); game_map = newseq[row8](height)
row16 = newseq[int16](width); sum_map = newseq[row16](height)
rowChar = newseq[char](width); state_map = newseq[rowChar](height)
for h in 0.uint8..<height:
game_map[h] = row8; sum_map[h] = row16
state_map[h] = rowChar
I'm allowed to do it, it's allowed
(I don't use it a lot and I'm sure many dislike this because longer lines especially if they have less display width for whatever reason)
She's sad because she's realizing he's just a script kiddy and not a real programmer.
I can change! Let me be your indents!
I need some space
4 spaces, or 8?
Our company has seen long and bloody wars fought over the semicolon
