Declarative programming may greatly simplify writing parallel programs. [5] Common declarative languages include those of database query languages (e.g., SQL, XQuery), regular expressions, logic programming (e.g. Prolog, Datalog, answer set programming), functional programming, configuration management, and algebraic modeling systems.
Python has a similar approach to document its in-built methods, however mimics the language's lack of fixation on scope and data types. [5] This documentation has the syntax of each method, along with a short description and an example of the typical use of the method or function.
