Programming Style: Method Definition with or without a semicolon.

1) I've seen an alternative way of defining a method, with the semicolon after the declaration, before the body:

- (NSArray *)sortedIncredients;   <-- notice the semicolon
    {
       ...
    }

2) ... versus the standard declaration + body of the definition (without the semicolon):

- (NSArray *)sortedIncredients {
  ...
}

Both seem to work the same.
Is there any benefit of (1) over (2) or is it merely style of programming?
