    S-expression. In computer programming, an S-expression (or symbolic expression, abbreviated as sexpr or sexp) is an expression in a like-named notation for nested list (tree -structured) data. S-expressions were invented for and popularized by the programming language Lisp, which uses them for source code as well as data.

    ''Title of list:'' example 1, example 2, example 3 Title of list: example 1, example 2, example 3 This style requires less space on the page, and is preferred if there are only a few entries in the list, it can be read easily, and a direct edit point is not required. The list items should start with a lowercase letter unless they are proper nouns.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_(data_structure)

    In computer science, a tree is a widely used abstract data type that represents a hierarchical tree structure with a set of connected nodes. Each node in the tree can be connected to many children (depending on the type of tree), but must be connected to exactly one parent, [1] except for the root node, which has no parent (i.e., the root node ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_folding

    Code folding. Code or text folding, or less commonly holophrasting, [1] is a feature of some graphical user interfaces that allows the user to selectively hide ("fold") or display ("unfold") parts of a document. This allows the user to manage large amounts of text while viewing only those subsections that are currently of interest.

    Like raw strings, there can be any number of equals signs between the square brackets, provided both the opening and closing tags have a matching number of equals signs; this allows nesting as long as nested block comments/raw strings use a different number of equals signs than their enclosing comment: --[[comment --[=[ nested comment ...

  8. Abstract syntax tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abstract_syntax_tree

    Abstract syntax tree. An abstract syntax tree (AST) is a data structure used in computer science to represent the structure of a program or code snippet. It is a tree representation of the abstract syntactic structure of text (often source code) written in a formal language. Each node of the tree denotes a construct occurring in the text.
