Synopsis
This is a book on programming. However, it is neither a manual nor an introductory text book. Typical computer science categories (such as functionality, power, or efficiency) are of only marginal interest to the authors. Instead, where programming in its broadest sense is looked at from a psychological point of view - learning, perception, understanding, the design of programming languages or command sets, and most prominently, the representation of human programming knowledge are the topics forming the core of the book. It discusses the static structure of programs as well as the activity of programming. This book was not written for psychologists only. It goes beyond pure analysis and delves into constructive, engineering activities. Several articles try to explicitly feed back the knowledge gained through thorough psychological analysis into real system building enterprises. It is the hope of the editors, therefore, that the messages contained in this book are considered relevant for programmers, will-be programmers (meaning learners), and designed of programming languages and environments.
