No it isn't, at least VB.NET isn't. There are plenty of places where a
newline is syntactically necessary. In general, the Basic family of
languages has always been line-oriented. The C family of languages has
generally been character-oriented, and I believe C# retains this: you
can write perfectly acceptable C# programs on one line, if you want.
You would hate Python.
