    There isn't one. Perl statements end with a
semicolon (there are exceptions). You can use
any amount of whites space you wish to break up
long lines.

    Both of these are valid:


my $sum = 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10;

my $sum =

        0 + 1 + 2   + 3 + 4 +   5 + 6 + 7   +
        8       +   9           +       0   +
        1       +   2           +       3   +
        4       +   5           +       6   +
        7 + 8 + 9   + 0 +       1 + 2 + 3   +
        4           +           5  +        6
        +           7           +   8       +
        9           +           0    +      1
        +           2           +     3     +
        4           + 5 + 6 +   7      +    8 + 9 + 0

        +1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+0+1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+0+1+2+
        3+4+5+6+7+8+9+0+1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+0+1+2+3+4 ;
