    Programming languages have syntax. Syntax is the same as grammar in any language.

                      The syntax is a set of rules that we need to follow when we write a computer program. Every
                      programming  language  has its  own syntax.  But  programming  languages  will  eventually  be
                      converted into a language which computer will understand.
                      Examples of programming languages are C, C++, C#, Python, PHP, Java, JavaScript, R, etc.

                                                                                                            PURE

                                SEARCHING FOR A WORD IN DICTIONARY

                      A dictionary is a book which contains words and phrases in an alphabetical order, with their
                      meanings.

                      Many times, while reading a book you may come across a word whose meaning you don’t know.
                      So how do you find out the meaning of the word?
                      You will find the meaning of the word by using a dictionary. But when you open a dictionary
                      you see, there are many words in a dictionary. So how do you find that particular word in the

                      dictionary?
                      Let’s see an example of how to find the word ‘Orange’ in a dictionary:

                      1.   Find the dictionary section with the first letter of the word, ‘o’.
                      2.   Within the list of words starting with the first letter ‘o’, find the section having the second letter
                         of the word ‘r’.

                      3.   You need to do this process again with the third letter ‘a’, fourth letter ‘n’,  fifth letter ‘g’ and
                         sixth letter ‘e’, until you finally reach the word ‘orange’ in the dictionary and then find its
                         meaning.
