Structograms are intended to be syntax-free, i.e., the contents of the standardized algorithmic elements may be any text, pseudo-code, or whatever seems to make sense to describe the meaning of an algorithmic step.

In order to make use of the many Structorizer features (like Executor, Code Export etc.), however, you will have to adhere to certain syntactical conventions for the instruction texts, which are a simplified mixture of usual programming languages with some specific additions (and limitations).

Overview of the remaining subsections of this manual page:

• Basic Syntactic Concepts
• Built-in Assets
  • Operators
  • Functions
  • Procedures
  • Plugin Subroutines (e.g. Turtleizer)
• Custom Subroutines (calls to user-defined diagrams)
• Complex Data Types
  
  • Arrays
  • Strings
  • Records
  • Enumerators

An additional section explains the specific, differing and constrained syntax supported for the provisional ARM generator (introduced as an experimental feature with version 3.32-02):
