I see it as sort of an extension of Knuth's 'literate programming' concept [1], which has existed in some form or another in many languages. Haskell has .lhs ('literate haskell') files where comments are the default and to have the compiler actually pay attention to a line you need to specifically preface it. Nice in the modern age to have the addition of graphs, charts, etc, without having to resort to TeX or ps or something. 1 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Literate_programming |
