  "description": "Snowflake Scripting is an extension to Snowflake SQL that adds support for procedural logic, allowing developers to implement complex control flow, variables, cursors, result sets, and exception handling within stored procedures, user-defined functions (UDFs), and anonymous blocks. It enhances the capabilities of standard SQL for data manipulation and automation within the Snowflake Data Cloud.",
