New submission from Isaac Elliott <[email protected]>:
echo 'print("a");print("b")' > test.py
This program is grammatically incorrect according to the specification
(https://docs.python.org/3.8/reference/grammar.html). But Python 3 runs it
without issue.
It's this production here
simple_stmt: small_stmt (';' small_stmt)* [';'] NEWLINE
which says 'simple_stmt's must be terminated by a newline. However, the program
I wrote doesn't contain any newlines.
I think the grammar spec is missing some information, but I'm not quite sure
what. Does anyone have an idea?
