Compound statements

Compound statements are a group of statements, separated by semicolons, that are surrounded by the keywords Begin and End. The Last statement doesn’t need to be followed by a semicolon, although it is allowed. A compound statement is a way of grouping statements together, executing the statements sequentially. They are treated as one statement in cases where Pascal syntax expects 1 statement, such as in if ... then statements.
