Syntacticsugar is a computer science term that refers to syntax within a programming language that is designed to make things easier to read or to express. It makes the language sweeter for humans to use things can be expressed more clearly, more concisely, or in an alternative style that some may prefer. Specifically, a construct in a language is called syntacticsugar if it can be removed from the language without any effect on what the language can do Function engineering functionality and expressive power will remain the same. All applications of the construct can be systematically replaced with equivalents that do not use it. For instance, in imperative programming language s, for loop s can be systematically replaced with while loop s, which in turn can be systematically replaced with goto s. More generally, the term is used to characterize syntax as being designed for ease of expression, for instance List comprehension Python list comprehension in Python . In C Sharp programming language C , the property computer science property construct may be called syntacticsugar it is roughly ... called desugaring . Origins The term syntacticsugar was coined by Peter J. Landin in 1964 to describe ... programming language bracket delimited languages , that syntacticsugar causes cancer of the semicolon . See Epigrams on Programming . Derivative terms Syntactic salt The metaphor has been extended by coining the term syntactic salt , which indicates a feature designed to make it harder to write bad code. Specifically, syntactic salt is a hoop programmers must jump through just to prove that they know ..., while C and C will automatically truncate any floats assigned to an int.

In mathematics and computer science , the syntactic monoid M L of a formal language L is the smallest monoid that recognizable language recognizes the language L . Syntactic quotient Given math S subset M math of a monoid M , one may define sets that consist of formal left or right Inverse element In an unital magma inverses of elements in S . These are called string operations quotients , and one may define right or left quotients, depending on which side one is concatenating. Thus, the right quotient of S by an element math m in M math is the set math S m u in M vert um in S . math Similarly, the left quotient is math m setminus S u in M vert mu in S . math Syntactic equivalence The syntactic quotient induces an equivalence relation on M , called the syntactic relation , or syntactic equivalence or syntactic congruence induced by S . The right syntactic equivalence is the equivalence relation math sim S s,t in M times M , vert S s S t . math Similarly, the left syntactic relation is math , S sim s,t in M times M , vert s setminus S t setminus S . math A double sided congruence may be defined as math u sim S v Leftrightarrow forall x, y in M xuy in S Leftrightarrow xvy in S . math Syntactic monoid The syntactic quotient is Quotient algebra compatible with concatenation in the monoid, in that one has math M s t M ts math for all math s,t in M math and similarly for the left quotient .

In the field of linguistics , syntactic change is the evolution of the syntax , or structure, of a Natural language natural spoken language . In many languages, it is most easily observed in the transformation of irregular verb forms. For instance, in English language English , the past tense of the irregular verb to go is not goed , which is what a non native speaker would probably expect. Instead, the verb has undergone a syntactic change to went , a borrowing from the past tense of the verb to wend . Over time, syntactic change is usually the greatest modifier of a particular language. Syntactic change is seen as creating a gradual shift in language patterns over time. It is also subject to Drift linguistics cyclic drift . ref Henri Wittmann 1983 . Les r actions en cha ne en morphologie diachronique.

Unreferenced date March 2010 Linguistic typology topics The syntactic pivot is the verb argument around which Sentence linguistics sentence s revolve , in a given language . This usually means the following If the verb has more than zero arguments, then one argument is the syntactic pivot. If the verb agrees with at least one of its arguments, then it agrees with the syntactic pivot. In coordinated propositions, in languages where an argument can be left out, the omitted argument is the syntactic pivot. The first two characteristics have to do with simple morphosyntax , and from them it is quite obvious the syntactic pivot in English language English and most other European languages is what we call the subject grammar subject . An English verb cannot lack a subject even in the imperative mood , the subject is implied to be you and is not ambiguous or unspecified , and cannot have just a direct object grammar object and no subject and at least in the present tense, and for the verb to be it agrees partially with the subject. The third point deserves an explanation. Consider the following sentence I shot the deer and killed it. There are two coordinated propositions, and the second proposition lacks an explicit subject, but since the subject is the syntactic pivot, then the second proposition is assumed to have the same subject as the first one. One cannot do this with a direct object in English . The result would be either ungrammatical or with a different meaning nowiki nowiki I shot the deer and I killed. it deliberately deleted The syntactic pivot is a feature of the morphosyntactic alignment of the language. In nominative accusative language s the syntactic pivot is the so called subject the argument marked with the nominative case .

Syntactic Web is a phrase meant to describe the current, mostly HTML based World Wide Web , in order to distinguish it from the Semantic Web , a concept in which web pages carry information that can be read and understood by machines in a systematic way. The term stems from the contrast between syntax , which is the mechanics of a language used to convey information, and semantics , which is the actual meaning of that information. On a syntactic web page, which is any document on the web that does not contain special tagging to convey meaning, meaning is difficult to parse by a computer program . An example is a site that gives the weather for any city in the world, in HTML form. Even though the site offers dynamic, database driven information, it is presented in a purely syntactic way. One could imagine a computer program that tried to retrieve this weather information through text parsing or web scraping . Though it would be possible to do, if the creators of the site ever decide to change around the layout or HTML of the site, the computer program would most likely need to be rewritten in some way. In contrast, if the weather site published its data semantically, the program could retrieve that semantic data, and the site s creators could change the look and feel of the site without affecting that retrieval ability.

Unreferenced date March 2007 A syntactic category is a type of syntactic unit that theories of syntax assume. The traditional parts of speech e.g. noun, verb, preposition, etc. are syntactic categories, and in phrase structure grammar phrase structure grammars , the phrasal categories e.g. noun phrase, verb phrase, preposition phrase, etc. are also syntactic categories. Phrase structure grammars draw an important distinction between lexical category lexical and phrasal categories. Dependency grammar Dependency grammars , in contrast, do not acknowledge phrasal categories at least not in the traditional sense , which means they work with lexical categories alone. Defining criteria The three criteria used in defining syntactic categories are The type of meaning it expresses The type of affix affixes it takes The structure in which it occurs For instance, many nouns in English denote concrete entities, they are pluralized with the suffix s , and they occur as subjects and objects in clauses. Many verbs denote actions or states, they are conjugated with agreement suffixes e.g. s of the third person singular in English , and in English they tend to show up in medial positions of the clauses in which they appear. Lexical vs. phrasal categories The traditional parts of speech are known as lexical category lexical categories .

Orphan date May 2010 Refimprove date May 2007 In software engineering , syntactic methods are techniques for developing correct software Computer program programs . The techniques attempt to detect, and thus prevent, certain kinds of defects computer bug bugs by examining the structure of the code being produced at its syntactic rather than semantic level. Usage Syntactic methods are often used when formal methods are not an option, and are often a simpler and, more importantly, cheaper alternative. In non mission critical systems, formal methods may prove to be too expensive for the benefit they provide. The costs of modelling, personnel, execution and development may often outweigh the benefits gained by preventing possible failures. This approach revolves around the use of an abstract dependency graph which is created from the system in question. An abstract dependency graph is a directed graph , a graph of vertex graph theory vertices connected by one way edges. Most often, the vertices and edges of the graph represent the inputs and outputs of functions in or components of the system. By inspecting the created abstract dependency graph, the developer can detect syntactic anomalies or Preece anomalies in the system.

orphan date May 2010 Refimprove date April 2007 Syntactics, or syntax, is concerned with the way sentences are constructed from smaller parts, such as words and phrases. Two steps can be distinguished in the study of syntactics. The first step is to identify different types of units in the stream of speech and writing. In natural languages, such units include sentences, phrases, and words. In artificial languages, lexemes, tokens, and formulas are usually found among the basic units. The second step is to analyse how these units build up larger patterns, and in particular to find general rules that govern the construction of sentences. http people.dsv.su.se vadim cmnew chapter2 ch2 21.htm The syntactic hierarchy from smaller to larger units is as follows Morpheme Word Phrase Sentence linguistics Sentence clause Written language Text The term morphosyntax morpho syntactic hierarchy is a synonym.

for philosophical considerations of ambiguity ambiguity Syntactic ambiguity is a property of Sentence linguistics sentence s which may be reasonably interpreted in more than one way, or reasonably interpreted to mean more than one thing. Ambiguity may or may not involve one word having two parts of speech or homonym s. Syntactic ambiguity arises not from the range of meanings of single words, but from the relationship between the words and clauses of a sentence, and the sentence structure implied thereby. When a reader can reasonably interpret the same sentence as having more than one possible structure, the text is equivocal and meets the definition of syntactic ambiguity. In legal disputes, court s may be asked to interpret the meaning of syntactic ambiguities in statutes or contracts. In some instances, arguments asserting highly unlikely interpretations have been deemed frivolous . Syntactic and semantic ambiguity In syntactic ambiguity, the same sequence of words is interpreted as having different syntactic structures. In contrast, in semantic ambiguity, the structure remains the same, but the individual words are interpreted differently. ref Layman E.

Syntactic movement is a fact that must be expressed somehow by every grammar of human languages and was first captured by structuralist linguists who called it discontinuous constituents other terms are displacement , or simply movement cf. Graffi 2001 . It aims at capturing the fact that certain constituents appear to have been displaced from the position where they receive important features of interpretation cf. Carnie 2006 . Types of movements A typical example is the following 1 which story has John told Peter that Mary knows of? The phrase which story is interpreted as the object of knows of rather than the object of told , although it is closer to the latter verb. There can be different pieces of empirical evidence to support this intuition, based on pronoun interpretation or morphological case. For example, the possibility for a preverbal interrogative pronoun to be marked Accusative can only be explained if one assumes that it was moved from the postverbal object position, witness the ungrammaticality of 3 2 whom does he love? 3 whom loves her? Within generative grammar it has been traditionally proposed that there are two instances of movement. Argumental movement A movement displacing a phrase in a position where a fixed grammatical function is assigned, such as in movement of the object to subject position in passives 4 the book was read Non Argumental movement A bar movement displacing a phrase in a position where a fixed grammatical function is not assigned, such as movement of the subject or the object to preverbal position in interrogatives 5 who do you think loves Mary? 6 whom do you think Mary loves? A different partition among types of movements is phrasal vs. head movement. In fact, not only a phrase can be displaced, but also the head of a phrase, such as for example ... arrive tomorrow?

It is a story set during the Great Depression , in Northam, Western Australia , Moore River Native Settlement and Perth, Western Australia Perth . The play focuses on the Millimurras, an Australian Aboriginal family and their attempts at subsistence. The play explores the marginalisation of women and Aborigines within 1920s and 1930s Australian society. The pivotal themes in the play include racism, white empowerment superiority, Aboriginal disempowerment, the materialistic values held by the white Australians, Aboriginal dependency on whites and the value held by the Aborigines of family. A. O. Neville , the Chief Protector of Aborigines during the period in which the play is set, appears as a character. The play was first performed by the Playhouse Company in association with the Australian Theatre Trust , for the Festival of Perth on 18 February 1985. Perambulant model The perambulant model is a technique used in drama to dislocate the audience involving multiple points of focus. Throughout No Sugar it is employed to convey a sense of displacement to the audience, representative of the isolation felt by the Aboriginal people unable and unwilling to assimilate to White Culture. Characters Jimmy Munday, the protagonist, is an Aboriginal man who despises the fact he is not equal in society and is not regarded as a person by the government. He has a heart condition which leads to his death after arguing with Mr Neville at the Australia Day celebrations.

Syntactic pattern recognition or structural pattern recognition is a form of pattern recognition , in which each object can be represented by a variable cardinality set of symbolic, nominal data nominal features. This allows for representing pattern structures, taking into account more complex interrelationships between attributes than is possible in the case of flat, numerical feature vector s of fixed dimensionality, that are used in statistical classification . Syntactic pattern recognition can be used instead of statistical pattern recognition if there is clear structure in the patterns. One way to present such structure is by means of a String computer science strings of symbols from a formal language . In this case the differences in the structures of the classes are encoded as different formal grammar grammars . An example of this would be diagnosis of the heart with Electrocardiogram ECG measurements. ECG waveform s can be approximated with diagonal and vertical line segments. If normal and unhealthy waveforms can be described as formal grammars, measured ECG signal can be classified as healthy or unhealthy by first describing it in term of the basic line segments and then trying to parse the descriptions according to the grammars. Another example is tessellation of tiling patterns. A second way to represent relations are Graph mathematics graphs , where nodes are connected if corresponding subpatterns are related. An item can be labeled as belonging to a class if its graph representation is isomorphic with prototype graphs of the class. Typically, patterns are constructed from simpler sub patterns in a hierarchical fashion. This helps in dividing the recognition task into easier subtask of first identifying sub patterns and only then the actual patterns.
