Abstract
A mechanism for the rapid prototyping of code whereby a user selects a subsection of code and runs multiple evaluations on the selected code and altered versions of the code without first saving and naming the code subsection is disclosed. The selected subsection of code, referred to as a code cell, groups multiple lines of code together and evaluates them together. Output from the analysis is displayed to a user. Algorithms may be altered and variable values may be modified in-place as required to achieve an optimal result for the user. Once a desired version of the code is established, the code may be saved and then published in multiple user-selected formats with a single command. Each code cell in the program code may be used to generate a separate publication thus creating a narrative effect when sequentially viewing a grouping of the publications in the user-selected format.
