+    Title: Language Notes
+_______________________________________________________________________________
+
+    This is more for my personal reference than anything else.

+
+    Parameters via Commas, Typed via Spaces:
+
+        > FunctionName ( type indentifier, type identifier = value, modifier type identifier )
+        > FunctionName ( indentifier, identifier = value )
+
+        The general idea is that parameters are separated by commas.  Identifiers cannot contain spaces.  Types and modifiers,
+        if available, are separated from the identifiers with spaces.  There may be an equals sign to set the default value.
+
+        So parsing means splitting by commas, stripping everything past an equals sign for the default value, stripping everything
+        after the last space for the identifier, and the rest is the type.  If there are no internal spaces after the default value is
+        stripped, it's all identifier.
+
+        Note that internal parenthesis, brackets, braces, and angle brackets should be parsed out.  They may be present in default
+        values or types and any commas and equal signs in them should not be included.
+
+        Applies to C++, Java, C#, JavaScript, Python, PHP, Ruby.
+
+        Applies to Perl as well, even though it doesn't have any real parameter declaration structure.  Just adding it with comments
+        is fine.
+
+    Parameters via Semicolons and Commas, Typed via Colons:
+
+        > FunctionName ( identifier: type; identifier, identifier: type; identifier: type := value )
+
+        Parameters via semicolons, types via colons.  However, there can be more than one parameter per type via commas.
+        Default values via colon-equals.
+
+        Applies to Pascal, Ada.
+
+
+    SQL:
+
+        > FunctionName ( identifier type, identifier modifier type, identifier type := value )
+
+        Parameters separated by commas.  Identifiers come before the types and are separated by a space.  Default values are
+        specified with colon-equals.
+
+        > FunctionName @identifier type, @dentifier modifier type, @identifier type = value
+
+        Microsoft's SQL uses equals instead of colon-equals, doesn't need parenthesis, and starts its parameter names with an @
+        symbol.
+
+
+    Visual Basic:
+
+        > FunctionName ( modifiers identifier as type, identifier = value )
+
+        Parameters separated by commas.  Default values via equals.  However, any number of modifiers may appear before the
+        identifier.  Those modifiers are ByVal, ByRef, Optional, and ParamArray.
+
+
+    Tcl:
+
+        > FunctionName { identifier identifier { whatever } } { code }
+
+        Identifiers are specified in the first set of braces and have no commas.  However, they can be broken out into sub-braces.
