Declaring a Variable Python
var_2= "This is a string"
$var_1 = 2 ;
PHP
$var_2="This is a string" ;
var var_1=2;
Javascript
var var_2="This is a string";

int var_1;
Function/Method Declaration C++
char var_2;
}
public static func_01 {

Python var_1=2

cout << "x is 100";
C++
else

if( x < 20 ){
System.out.print("This is if statement");
}else{
Java
System.out.print("This is else statement");
}
}

If Statement if a > 5:
Python print "This shouldn't happen."
else:
print "This should happen."
if ($t < "20") {
PHP echo "Have a good day!";
}
if (hour < 18) {
greeting = "Good day";
Javascript } else {

}
for (int n=10; n>0; n--) {
C++ cout << n << ", ";
}

For Loop String [] names ={"James", "Larry", "Tom", "Lacy"};
for( String name : names ) {
Java
System.out.print( name );
System.out.print(",");
}
for item in items:
Python print(number, item)
number = number + 1
for ($x = 0; $x <= 10; $x++) {
PHP echo "The number is: $x <br>";
}
for (i = 0; i < cars.length; i++) {
Javascript text += cars[i] + "<br>";
}
cin >> x;
C++
//Takes the value from user and stores in x
Scanner user_input = new Scanner( System.in );
String first_name;
Java
System.out.print("Enter your first name: ");
first_name = user_input.next( );
person = input('Enter your name: ')
Taking Input from User Python
print('Hello', person)
//In PHP taking input from user will need a PHP form
<form action="welcome.php" method="post">
Name: <input type="text" name="name">
PHP
E-mail: <input type="text" name="email">
<input type="submit">
</form>
cout << "Output sentence"; // prints Output sentence on
screen
C++
cout << 120; // prints number 120 on screen
cout << x; // prints the value of x on screen
Java System.out.print( name );
person = input('Enter your name: ')
Python
print('Hello', person)
Write Operation/ Output echo "Hello world!";
PHP
echo "I'm about to learn PHP!";

Java dataType[] arrayRefVar = new dataType[arraySize];
['red', 'green', 'blue']
[1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11]
Arrays Python
['silly', 57, 'mixed', -23, 'example']
//These are Python lists
