Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Documentation: Fix bug in example code snippet

A semicolon was mistakenly placed at the end of 'if' statements.
If example is copied as-is, it would lead to the subsequent return
being executed unconditionally, which is incorrect, and the rest of the
function would never be reached.
