Can we teach computers how to program? Recent advances in neural network research reveal that certain neural networks are able not only to learn the syntax, grammar and semantics of arbitrary character sequences, but also synthesize new samples 'in the style of' the original training data. We explore the adaptation of these techniques to code classification, comprehension and completion.
