Abstract

The authors have developed a module extractor called VAMP, that cooperates with a standard formatter. They describe the VAMP approach to literate programming. Literate programming identifies a method of documentation which explains to people what a computer is supposed to do. Generally, this means that refinement steps are documented in such a way that modules can be extracted from the documentation files. The tool has been in use since 1982. The experiences are predominantly positive, in spite of the overhead implicit in the methodology. The fact that VAMP is independent of both programming language and formatter distinguishes it from WEB and its derivatives.<>

VAMP:一个独立于编程语言和格式化器的读写编程工具
作者开发了一个名为VAMP的模块提取器,它与标准格式化器配合使用。他们描述了VAMP的识字编程方法。识字编程确定了一种向人们解释计算机应该做什么的文档方法。通常,这意味着细化步骤是以这样一种方式记录的,即可以从文档文件中提取模块。该工具自1982年以来一直在使用。尽管方法中隐含着开销,但经验主要是积极的。VAMP独立于编程语言和格式化器这一事实使它区别于WEB及其衍生产品。
