How to escape a semicolon in presto?

@elise_daugherty 

To escape a semicolon in Presto, you can use double quotation marks (""). For example, if you want to include a semicolon within a string, you can enclose the string within double quotation marks to escape the semicolon.

Here is an example:

SELECT 'This is a string with a semicolon; escaped by double quotation marks';

In this example, the semicolon within the string is escaped by enclosing the entire string in double quotation marks. This will prevent the semicolon from being interpreted as a statement terminator in the Presto query.
