but this is not recommended, as it becomes nearly impossible for a person to read after the program grows beyond a few statements.

There are many other ways to identify statement blocks, such as ending keywords that may match beginning keywords (seein [[Ada programming language|Ada]], [[Pascal programming language|Pascal]], [[REXX]], and [[Visual Basic]]), indentation (seein [[Python programming language|Python]]), or other symbols such as parentheses (seein [[Lisp]]).

=== Loops ===

In [[C programming language|C]], [[C Plus Plus|C++]], and [[Java programming language|Java]]:

while (''Boolean expression'') {

''statement(s)''

Line 38:

=== Conditional statements ===

In [[C programming language|C]], [[C Plus Plus|C++]], and [[Java programming language|Java]]:

if (''Boolean expression'') {

''statement(s)''

Line 66:

=== Exception handling ===

In [[C Sharp programming language|C#]] and [[Java programming language|Java]]:

try {

''statement(s)''

Line 77:

}

[[C Plus Plus|C++]] does not have <tt>finally</tt>, but otherwise looks similar. C has nothing like this, though some compilers vendors added the keywords <tt>__try</tt> and <tt>__finally</tt> to their implementation.

[[C programming language|C]] has nothing like this, though some compilers vendors added the keywords <tt>__try</tt> and <tt>__finally</tt> to their implementation.
