maropu commented on issue #27567: [SPARK-30822][SQL] Remove semicolon at the end of a sql query
URL: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/27567#issuecomment-590045665
 
 
   In database systems, a semicolon is a standard way to split multiple statements into each one. `spark.sql` does not support multiple statements now (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-24260) though, is this support still useful?
   
   On the other hand, in `bin/spark-sql`, we can use semicolons to input multiple queries;
   ```
   spark-sql> select 1; select 1; select 1;
   1

   1

   1

   ```
