Syntax reference here is a useful link

 

Having programed in other languages I needed a crib sheet to get a check on the syntax of familiar yet unfamiliar coding concepts.
Having checked the past answers to this question and found them unhelpful and checked through the book with no speed of joy paused
and looked elsewhere. I found this website to be free of crap and useful as a crib sheet to refer to for syntax check.

This is for the expert-novice who needs a little more about what to look for when looking at the code examples.
