| | Literate programming - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Literate 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 "literate programming." | | | The first published literate 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. | | | Firstly, in the interests of putting the user at ease, the program will simulate personal interest in the user by asking for their name, accepting the input and generating a greeting based on the input text. |

| | Literate Programming |
| | Literate 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 literate programming systems is that a new set of processors must be created or adapted for each programming language used. | | | Another approach to this is to ignore the programming language in use. |

| | Software Build and Fix: Tips |
| | Literate 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. | | | Literate programming was invented by Donald Knuth and used by him to develop his TeX system. | | | When the literate 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 Literate Programming |
| | Literate 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. | | | When you write a computer program, you have to present the code to the computer in a certain order, or else it doesn't work. | | | 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. |

| | For instance, if a parser is a component of the program, then the yacc and lex code for the parser should be the source used to generate the program. | | | Seeing a clear exposition of the program code may also induce the maintenance programmer to correct it when a mistake is found, instead of merely correcting the program code and leaving the specification in its original erroneous state. | | | A brief history of the literate programming paradigm, recent work, and some ideas that we're working on, with apologies to the established players. |

| | Knuth: Literate Programming |
| | Literate 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. | | | Excerpts from the programs for TeX and METAFONT [from | | | The main idea is to treat a program as a piece of literature, addressed to human beings rather than to a computer. |

| | 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. |

| | This system performs three basic functions: (1) Provides a DTD that allows the markup of literate programs, including a exible system for describing the purpose and implementation of the computer program (based on DocBook) and markup of the program code itself to allow the literate program to produce the computer instructions. | | | "Literate Programming is a style of programming in which the programmer writes an essay instead of a program. | | | "LitProg (Literate Programming) is a technique created by Donald Knuth to make computer programs readable and maintainable: the source code for the program is interspersed in the prose documentation of the program's function, data structures, algorithms, and organization. |

| | Slashdot Literate Programming and Leo |
| | 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. | | | The ideal programming language would be one that allowed you to express abstractions at the level of the problem domain, yet was able to translate that into something as efficiently executable, or close to it, as something written in a lower-level language. | | | There is no doubt that literate programming (like extreme programming) has its benefits, but their principal benefits are to encourage an attitude of critical evaluation to your coding efforts. |

| | DBLP - DocBook-based Literate Programming |
| | 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 original "proof of prinicple" experiment which demonstrated that the concept of creating a simple SGML/DSSSL literate programming system was practical (at my level of programming skill) is documented here, with the nuweb literate programming source also available. | | | This would appear most useful if you already have a working version of the system, since dblp.sgm is itself a literate program (and the "woven" version of the system is available in HTML form) |
