Ok, I think I get your confusion now...

ANALYZE [ VERBOSE ] [ *table_name* [ ( *column_name* [, ...] ) ] ]

column_name can be repeated. If it is each name is separated from the
previous one by a comma. The brackets indicate optional repetition of the
immediately preceding element. The presence or absence of a comma in the
bracket indicates whether each option repeat needs a comma separator. It's
not the comma that is being repeated.
