Signaling refers to the addition of non-content information to a text in order to emphasize certain ideas and/or clarify the organization. There is increased interest in using typographic signaling, such as boldface type, different font sizes and ruled lines, to format computer program source code listings. However, little evidence exists...
Guidelines for using style to improve computer program comprehension
have often been proposed without empirical testing. This thesis reports on the
results of three controlled experiments that investigated ways program style may be
used to aid comprehension of source code listings.
Experiments 1 and 2 were conducted using advanced computer...
We discuss Einstein’s field equations in the presence of signature change using variational methods, obtaining a generalization of the Lanczos equation relating the distributional term in the stress tensor to the discontinuity of the extrinsic curvature. In particular, there is no distributional term in the stress tensor, and hence no...
