Through the use of conditional compilation and related tools, many software projects can be used to generate a huge
number of related programs. The problem of typing such variational software is difficult. The brute-force strategy
of generating all variants and typing each one individually is (1) usually infeasible for efficiency...
We present an explanation-oriented, domain-specific, visual language for explaining probabilistic reasoning. Explanation-oriented programming is a new paradigm that shifts the focus of programming from the computation of results to explanations of how those results were computed. Programs in this language therefore describe explanations of probabilistic reasoning problems. The language relies...
