Future of Coding

A book called “_Diagramming Techniques for Analysts and Programmers”_ (1985). Found it through a paper by David Harel. He descibed it as: 

&gt; The state of the art on diagrammatic languages at the time can be gleaned from the book by Martin and McClure titled _Diagramming Techniques for Analysts and Programmers_. This book discussed many visual techniques, but little attention was given to the need for solid semantics and/or executability. Curiously, this book could have helped convince people that visual languages should not be taken seriously as means to actually program a system the way a standard programming language can.
