 Programmers insert documentation called  facts into the program code.​ 

 Which programming language is an interpreted language most commonly used for client-side Web scripting, such as animating page elements and validating input on HTML forms?​ 

 Prolog and other declarative languages were classified as fifth-generation languages.​ 

 A(n) _________ provides programmers with tools to build substantial sections of a program by pointing and clicking rather than typing lines of code.​ 

 The ________ paradigm is most efficient for processing words and languages.​

 Prolog and other __________ languages were classified as fifth generation languages.​

  _______________, such as BASIC, Python, Java, Prolog, and C++, make the programming process easier by replacing unintelligible strings of 1s and 0s or cryptic assembly commands with understandable commands, such as PRINT and WRITE.​

 A(n) ____________ control structure directs the computer to repeat one or more instructions until a certain condition is met.​
