4.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive reference for WEB programmers, July 6, 2000

This review is from: Weaving a Program: Literate Programming in Web (Paperback)

The mechanics of using the WEB language, the original literate programming system for Pascal, is covered in the first half of the book. The second half of the book contains sample literate programs including weave, tangle, mtangle, mweave, knight's tour, eight queens, table handler library, and homotopy. This is an excellent reference for resolving error messages (chapter 7) or customizing the behavior of your WEB system (chapter 5 & 13).
