Statements in VectorScript are the actions of the language. Whereas expressions in VectorScript can be thought of as “phrases” that can be evaluated to a value, expressions don’t “do” anything. To make something happen, you need to use a VectorScript statement, which is akin to a complete sentence or a command. Statements in VectorScript perform the execution tasks of your script, managing your script data and controlling the flow of script execution.
Statements in VectorScript are always found in “blocks,” and a script is simply a large block containing a collection of statements. Each statement in VectorScript is terminated with a semi-colon, which indicates to the VectorScript compiler where each statement ends.
