Key Points

  • This research examines how structured programming techniques affect programmer performance based on experimental evaluation.
  • Evaluated various structured programming techniques from the late 1970s.
  • Conducted experiments to measure their impact on programmer performance.
  • Structured programming techniques led to improved programmer efficiency and output quality.
  • Quantitative measures of performance showed statistically significant improvements.

Abstract

The late 70' s find structured programming increasingly popular—this and other techniques are programming's future. But what does experimental evaluation say about their actual effects on programmer performance?
