Single statements in C# (as opposed to a block of statements enclosed in curly braces) are typically written on a single line and terminated by a semicolon.
The code fragment below contains two statements, one that initializes an instance of a Dog and one that invokes the Bark method on that instance. Each of the statements is terminated by a semicolon.

| Dog d1 = new Dog("Jack", 17);d1.Bark("Yip", 4); |
You can break a statement into as many lines as you like in your source code, as long as you don’t insert a line break in the middle of an identifier. The code fragment below splits the two statements above into several lines.
