About Command Termination

---

You can terminate a command in SQL Commands using a semicolon (;), a forward slash (/), or with nothing. Consider the following valid alternatives:

SELECT * from emp;

SELECT * from emp
/

SELECT * from emp

The first example demonstrates the use of a semicolon (;), the second example demonstrates the use of forward slash (/), and the final example demonstrates a command with no termination.
