Literateb> programming - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Literateb> programming is the writing of computer programs in the form of documents designed for casual human reading, similar to a work of literature; hence the name "literateb> programming."
The first published literateb> programming environment was WEB, introduced by Donald Knuth in 1981 for his TeX typesetting system; it uses Pascal as its underlying programming language and TeX for typesetting of the documentation.
Knuth had internally used a literateb> programming system called DOC as early as 1979; he was inspired by the ideas of Pierre Arnoul de Marneffe.

Literateb> Programming

Literateb> programming is the practice of combining the actual source code of a program with its documentation in ways which permit the documentation and source code to be produced as a high-quality published document and to serve as the actual basis of the computer program.
One of the limitations of language aware literateb> programming systems is that a new set of processors must be created or adapted for each programming language used.
There have been a number of derivative literateb> programming systems which share the concept that the literateb> programming system should be language aware in its handling of the programming language at hand.

Software Build and Fix: Tips

Literateb> programming flows from the observations that software in textbooks is easier to understand than software in computers and that part of the reason for this is that software in textbooks doesn't stand alne.
Literateb> programming was invented by Donald Knuth and used by him to develop his TeX system.
When the literateb> program is woven for reading with a WWW browser, each pseudocode phrase becomes a hyperlink to the code it represents.

perl.com: POD is not Literateb> Programming

Literateb> programming was invented around 1983 by the very famous Donald Knuth, author of the TeX typesetting system and the multi-volume series The Art of Computer Programming.
Literateb> programming is an intersting idea, and worth looking into, but if we think that we already know all about it, we won't bother.
Knuth's other idea was that the best order to explain the parts of the program in a journal article is not going to be the same as the order that the computer needs to see the code.

Literateb> Programming

A brief history of the literateb> programming paradigm, recent work, and some ideas that we're working on, with apologies to the established players.
The finished literateb> product will be a far cry from current literateb> programming technology, and we think that this will have the potential to bring literateb> programming into the mainstream, simply via evolutionary forces if in no other way.
When writing a literateb> program using existing technology, the programmer is simultaneously writing the program code and writing the typesetting code which will be used to typeset the final documentation.

Knuth: Literateb> Programming

Literateb> programming is a methodology that combines a programming language with a documentation language, thereby making programs more robust, more portable, more easily maintained, and arguably more fun to write than programs that are written only in a high-level language.
The main idea is to treat a program as a piece of literature, addressed to human beings rather than to a computer.
Most of the errors in the first two printings were corrected in the third printing, but several minor errors have been found by sharp-eyed readers of the fourth printing (1998).

Open Directory - Computers:Programming:Methodologies

Programming methodologies is a complex field, with many methodologies (and names), and many goals and means to reach them: structured programming, programming by refinement, program analysis and verification, refactoring, and many more.
It views programming as a mainly literary activity, where the main task is to concentrate on explaining to humans what the computer must do, and the program is a secondary message embedded in a resulting documentation Web.
Aspect-oriented (AO) programming is a direct outgrowth of object-oriented programming research done at Xerox PARC (Palo Alto Research Center) from 1972 until the mid-1980s.

Slashdot Literateb> Programming and Leo

There is no doubt that literateb> programming (like extreme programming) has its benefits, but their principal benefits are to encourage an attitude of critical evaluation to your coding efforts.
Literateb> programming in general, and Leo in particular, would be the ultimate cure for this.
Programming languages intended for use by humans (as opposed to languages intended primarily for machine generation) have multiple goals, three of which are to be human-writable, human-readable, and human-maintainable.

DBLP - DocBook-based Literateb> Programming

The original "proof of prinicple" experiment which demonstrated that the concept of creating a simple SGML/DSSSL literateb> programming system was practical (at my level of programming skill) is documented here, with the nuweb literateb> programming source also available.
The XML Cover Pages: Literateb> Programming with SGML and XML, by Robin Cover, provides a number of links related to the subject of literateb> programming based on SGML and XML.
The method used, however, does not appear generalizable to other programming languages, since it is based on the fact that a DSSSL style sheet is itself an SGML document, which is not generally true of other programming languages.

The nuweb system for Literateb> Programming

system for Literateb> Programming was initially developed several years ago by Preston Briggs, and was later extened as part of my Master's Thesis to help work with both specifications in Z (in effect, LaTeX source in a LaTeX/nuweb document) and the code that implements the specification in a common document.

Literateb> Programming -- Propaganda and Tools

Literateb> programming is an approach to programming which emphasises that programs should be written to be read by people as well as compilers.
I discovered literateb> programming about two years ago, and have not found too many other people (at least that I know of) who use this `programming methodology', but I suspect that its use is not too uncommon in general.
By combining the two, we can develop a style of programming that maximizes our ability to perceive the structure of a complex piece of software, and at the same time the documented programs can be mechanically translated into a working software system that matches the documentation.

modular.html

What should be a chunk is part of your ideas of how your program grows, what should be a function is not so much dictated by literateb> programming but by the way you should program in your language (disregarding the extra LP-functionality).
Literateb> programming encourages you to say what your do to achieve the goal of the program your are writing.
This is to be achieved by repeated interaction of documentation and program-code, so the way to judge whether your program is good or not, is to look at the documentation read it and see whether it is clear, complete and understandable for the current version of your program.
