On the other hand, papers with actual code muddy the actual contribution of their paper with code to allocate data structures, specify number of threads, etc. The audience for a paper is people looking to understand a new algorithm.
I do wish more authors published their source code separately from the actual paper.
- vidarh 9y agoYou don't need to present every little detail in the paper, but it very quickly becomes obvious what is missing. This distinction was very obvious when I did the literature survey for my MSc. - the papers with even partial code fragments were uniformly less likely to miss out essential information.
