## 46.5. Anonymous Code Blocks

 PL/Python also supports anonymous code blocks called with the [DO](sql-do.html) statement:

```
DO $$
    # PL/Python code
$$ LANGUAGE plpythonu;

```

 An anonymous code block receives no arguments, and whatever value it might return is discarded. Otherwise it behaves just like a function.
