  Description
 
    The keyword BEGIN starts a statement block that consists of one or
    more statements considered as one statement. It starts with a BEGIN
    followed by one or more statements, and ends with an END. Multiple
    statements are separated by semicolons.
 
    Anywhere a single statement appears, a statement block may also
    appear.
