NAME
       PPI::Statement::Null - A useless null statement


SYNOPSIS
         my $foo = 1;

         ; # <-- Null statement

         my $bar = 1;


INHERITANCE
         PPI::Statement::Null
         isa PPI::Statement
             isa PPI::Node
                 isa PPI::Element


DESCRIPTION
       "PPI::Statement::Null" is a utility class designed to handle situations where PPI encounters a naked
       statement separator.

       Although strictly speaking, the semicolon is a statement separator and not a statement terminator, PPI
       considers a semicolon to be a statement terminator under most circumstances.

       In any case, the null statement has no purpose, and can be safely deleted with no ill effect.


METHODS
       "PPI::Statement::Null" has no additional methods beyond the default ones provided by PPI::Statement,
       PPI::Node and PPI::Element.


SUPPORT
       See the support section in the main module.
