C# ";" character   

Hi,

What does the ";" at the end of an IF statement signify?

e.g.
try  
{
   If (strvalue <> "ABC") ; <--- 
   {
      return true;
   }
   return false;
}

Is the IF the same meaning as without the ";" at the end ?

cheers
Andrew

hello Andew,

";" just means an end of statement.....

so if(x==4);
x=7;

means that  x will always assigned 7 since the first statemet after if is 
already executed. so its wrong to put ; after ifs....

jst try out a console application with the above example ..
