Term: a word or phrase used for a particular/specific/special/distinctive thing.Programming Terminology(body of terms belonging to any subject)

Software/programPseudo code: rough code, an outline/plan of the codeSyntax: the structure of statements in a computer language. U can say it grammar of a programming language. Syntax needs to be in exactly the right place for the computer to understand the code.

Editor: The editor in which u write the code. A computer program enabling the user to enter or alter text/textual or other information.

Symbol A character that is not a number or a letter. For example, the less than (<) is considered a symbol. Period (full stop) .Quotes " " For turning into StringColon :Indent: start (a line of text) or position (a block of text) further from the margin than the main part of the text.BracketsRound Bracket or Curved Bracket or Parenthesis is singular, Parentheses is plural () Open parenthesis/Left parenthesis ( Close parenthesis/Right parenthesis )Curly Braces or Curly Brackets {}Square Brackets []Semicolon ; A symbol found on the computer keyboard that looks like a period above a coma (;). The semicolon is used a lot in computer programming to finish an instruction.Elif is a shit thing only in python, gola maro.Space/WhitespaceDeclare/Define a variable or function/method then call it.Access Modifiers: public, private. If there is no public modifier before variable or method, this means it is private by default. Therefore, it(variable) will not show up in inspector and it can't be called from other scripts.Parameter: There's a special name for that information between the parentheses of a method definition, such as line 22�the code is called the method parameters.Return key means Enter

Logical OperatorsNOT operator: ! Exclamation mark is called the NOT operator in programming. It means NOT. AND: It is used by putting && between the conditions being checked.OR: It is used by putting || between the conditions being checked.

Operators:= is for assignment=== is to check if things are equal like in an if statement(In JavaScript don't know if it's the same in other languages)
