Answer:

Syntax is essentially the punctuation and grammar rules for a computer language.

Step-by-step explanation:

Certain characters and words have special meanings and must appear in a particular order for the computer code to make any sense. A simple example from line 3 in Figure 2.2 is the piece of HTML code <head>.
