Mini-indexes for literate programs

Programming Languages 2008-02-03 v1

Abstract

This paper describes how to implement a documentation technique that helps readers to understand large programs or collections of programs, by providing local indexes to all identifiers that are visible on every two-page spread. A detailed example is given for a program that finds all Hamiltonian circuits in an undirected graph.
