      Description

      The semicolon (;) is optional as a statement separator except in traditional for loops and when several statements are combined on one line (which is a bad practice). For cleaner code, semicolons should be omitted.

      Noncompliant Code Example

      int a;  // Noncompliant

      Compliant Solution

      int a
