Processing is a programming language for creation of digital arts and multimedia content, allowing non-programmers to learn fundamentals of computer programming in a visual context.
While the language is based off on Java language, its syntax has been largely influenced by both Java and Javascript syntaxes. See more here
The language also comes with its official IDE to compile and run the scripts.

// Single-line comment starts with //

/*
    Since Processing is based on Java,
    the syntax for its comments are the same as Java (as you may have noticed above)!
    Multi-line comments are wrapped around /* */
*/

// In Processing, your program's entry point is a function named setup() with a void return type.
// Note! The syntax looks strikingly similar to that of C++
void setup() {
  // This prints out the classic output "Hello World!" to the console when run.
  println("Hello World!"); // Another language with a semi-column trap, aint it?
}
