End

keyword which closes a block of instructions started with the begin keyword, or the try .. finally or try .. except constructs.

For example:

 program Project1;
 
 var a,b: integer;
 
 begin
   (..)
 end.

 var
   SL: TStrings;
 begin
   SL := TStringlist.Create;
   try
     (..)
   finally
     SL.Free;
   end;
 end;

It is also used to end a pascal source file, in which case it is followed by a period rather than a semi-colon.

Keywords: begin — do — else — end — for — if — repeat — then — until — while
