Abstract
In this paper, we present the first evaluation of Elucidative Programming, in an educational context. Elucidative Programming, is a practical variation of Literate programming, and is aimed at maintenance of documentation of program understanding. By maintaining program understanding in documentation, we can retain thoughts and rationales behind a program from disappearing over time. Maintenance of these thoughts and rationales is important if the program is to be maintained or reused.
