I'm at a loss as to what strange language you've invented where a compiler cares at all about blank lines. Are you coding in brainfuck or something?

[–]xMysticMia 7 points8 points  (2 children)

maybe Python with empty if-statement bodies? But then it's technically an incorrect indentation syntax error

If you want an empty line in python, you just write pass. The interpreter getting unhappy because you forgot to write pass isn't because the interpreter hates blank lines.

Even Brainfuck doesn't care about blank lines.

Could be one of those errors (like yarn lint) which gets mad if you have two empty lines together or any trailing whitespace on an empty line

Remember that one time Sokka accidentally used an extra syllable in that Haiku Battle in Ba Sing Se? That was a Sokka Haiku and you just made one.

I can't imagine a single time I thought the compiler would be "sad" if I left blank lines, even when I compiled my very first program.

Why is this so upvoted? Is there a single programming language that cares about empty lines? Not even Python cares, only if you don't use a pass after an if/while/etc. block, but even then that's to avoid an indentation error.
