5.0 out of 5 stars
a perfect example of "literate programming",
By
This review is from: Programming in Mathematica (3rd Edition) (Paperback)
I read 2nd edition of the book. "Programming in Mathematica" (PIM) is certainly a classic work (in programming style) for writing Mathematica packages. I also think it as a perfect example of literate programming in Mathematica, if you are trying literate programming in Mathematica.The literate programming style encourages writing explanation explicitly with the computer code so that both get pretty-printed and become human friendly. PIM is exactly such a perfect example. Nearly each Mathematica code piece in the book was clearly and elegantly explained. I noticed that Silvio Levy commented at the back of 3rd Edition of PIM. Silvio Levy is one of the creators of CWEB, a literate programming tool for C language. Wondering if this book also satisfies his taste of literate programming. |
