+A semicolon indicates the end of a line of code. Spaces before the semicolon is unnecessary and must be removed.

+# Do not add whitespace at start or end of a file or end of a line
+
+Whitespace at the end of lines or at the start or end of a file is invisible to the reader and absolutely unnecessary. Thus it must be removed.
