Abstract

As the interactive computational notebook becomes a more prominent code development medium, we examine advantages and disadvantages of this particular source code format. We specify the structure of a coding notebook layout. We describe complexities in notebook programming; some of these are incidental whereas others may be inherent complexities. We outline how we envisage research and development might proceed to advance the cause of notebook programming.
