"In the Nix language, whitespace is generally used to separate tokens but does not have a significant impact on the interpretation of code beyond this. Unlike some programming languages where indentation or the presence of whitespace can alter the behavior of the code, Nix treats extra spaces, line breaks, and indentation as non-semantic, primarily for improving code readability and organization."

In code formatting, is whitespace meaningful?
Does the syntax depend on line breaks in any way?
For example, the first time functions are introduced, the full declaration is on one line:
nix-1p/README.md
Line 196 in 1cf10d3
Later an example function declaration takes up 3 lines with a blank line in between:
nix-1p/README.md
Lines 562 to 564 in 1cf10d3
