they're there for line continuation, e.g.: a = 40; foo(a) but in many cases, putting two statements in a single line reduces readability so use the semicolons extremely conservatively. But the worst is the abuse of semicolons for end-of-line markers. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
