====Parentheses in programming languages====
Parentheses are included in the syntaxes of many [[programming language]]s. Typically needed to denote an argument; to tell the compiler what data type the Method/Function needs to look for first in order to initialise. In some cases, such as in [[LISP]], parentheses are a fundamental construct of the language. They are also often used for scoping functions and operators and for arrays. In [[syntax diagram]]s they are used for grouping, such as in [[extended Backus–Naur form]].

In Mathematica and the Wolfram language, parentheses are used to indicate grouping{{snd}}for example, with pure anonymous functions.
