<overview>
<p>
Syntax errors prevent code from executing correctly. If a piece of code contains syntax errors,
this most likely indicates that it is never run and thus is dead code that should be removed.
</p>
</overview>
<recommendation>
<p>
Fix the syntax error. It may also be worth investigating whether the file containing the
erroneous code fragment is ever included from anywhere. If it is not, then it is dead code,
which should be removed.
</p>
</recommendation>
<example>
<p>
In the following example, function <code>findBox</code> contains incomplete code: the string
literal and its containing block statement are not properly terminated, leading to a syntax
error.
