Language construct

A language construct is a syntactically allowable part of a program that may be formed from one or more lexical tokens in accordance with the rules of a programming language.[1] The term "language construct" is often used as a synonym for control structure.

Examples of language constructs

In PHP print is a language construct.

<?php
print 'Hello world';
?>

is the same as:

<?php
print('Hello world');
?>

In Java a class is written in this format:

public class MyClass {
    //Code . . . . . .
}

In C++ a class is written in this format:

class MyCPlusPlusClass {
    //Code . . . .
};
gollark: Macron 3.
gollark: You'd want to use a slow hash thing like they use for passwords or brute force will still be possible.
gollark: Yes, that should be doable; encrypt the values with the key's hash or something.
gollark: So if you know the value it's hard to find the corresponding key?
gollark: Try explaining it better.
