Abstract
A system and method may provide assistance to programmers during programming to reduce the number of routine tasks that must be performed. In some aspects, the system may provide for searching a corpus of source code based on keyword or natural language search input. Search results including code entities and snippets of code that are described by the search input are then provided as search results. Some embodiments relate to using a neural network encoder to generate tensor embeddings of source code and related text in a joint tensor space. Relatedness between embeddings in this joint tensor space for text and associated source code is used in some embodiments to facilitate code search.
