The abstract nature of program code structures is inherently challenging to visualize. As virtual reality (VR) hardware and software become mainstream, VR visualization of program code structures becomes feasible. This application paper describes and evaluates our VR approach for visualizing software code structures that creates an immersive fly-through experience with multiple metaphors. Results show metaphor frame rate differences while interface usability efficiency was equivalent to non-VR.
