Actually I guess Python does have a statement terminator - end-of- line. If you use end-of-line as your statement terminator it is difficult and maybe impossible to avoid a line-continuation character in those situations where you don't want an end-of-line to terminate your statement. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
