C-Helper: C Latent-error Static/Heuristic Checker for Novice Programmers
2016
Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Computer Supported Education
Preserved Fulltext
For better programming language education, it is crucial to make compiler warning messages more understandable for novice programmers. ...
To solve this problem, by using a heuristic approach, we propose a novel C static checker called C-Helper, that aims to emit more direct error messages understandable for novices to correct wrong programs ...
