    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    Strings in Python are immutable, so a string operation such as a substitution of characters, that in other programming languages might alter the string in place, returns a new string in Python. Performance considerations sometimes push for using special techniques in programs that modify strings intensively, such as joining character arrays ...

    These all only support projective trees so far, wherein edges do not cross given the token ordering from the sentence. For non-projective trees, Nivre in 2009 modified arc-standard transition-based parsing to add the operation Swap (swap the top two tokens on the stack, assuming the formulation where the next token is always added to the stack ...

    Technically, Perl does not have a convention for including block comments in source code, but POD is routinely used as a workaround. PHP. PHP supports standard C/C++ style comments, but supports Perl style as well. Python. The use of the triple-quotes to comment-out lines of source, does not actually form a comment. [19]

    Parsing, syntax analysis, or syntactic analysis is a process of analyzing a string of symbols, either in natural language, computer languages or data structures, conforming to the rules of a formal grammar by breaking it into parts. The term parsing comes from Latin pars (orationis), meaning part (of speech). [1]

    Simple examples include semicolon insertion in Go, which requires looking back one token; concatenation of consecutive string literals in Python, [7] which requires holding one token in a buffer before emitting it (to see if the next token is another string literal); and the off-side rule in Python, which requires maintaining a count of indent ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentence_boundary...

    The standard 'vanilla' approach to locate the end of a sentence: [clarification needed] (a) If it is a period, it ends a sentence. (b) If the preceding token is in the hand-compiled list of abbreviations, then it does not end a sentence. (c) If the next token is capitalized, then it ends a sentence. This strategy gets about 95% of sentences ...
