Understanding beginners' mistakes with Haskell
2015
AbstractThis article presents an overview of student difficulties in an introductory functional programming (FP) course taught in Haskell. The motivation for this study stems from our belief that many student difficulties can be alleviated by understanding the underlying causes of errors and by modifying the educational approach and, possibly, the teaching language accordingly. We analyze students' exercise submissions and categorize student errors according to compiler error messages and then manually according to the observed underlying cause. Our study complements earlier studies on the topic by applying computer and manual analysis while focusing on providing descriptive statistics of d…
Error messages in relational database management systems: A comparison of effectiveness, usefulness, and user confidence
2021
Abstract The database and the database management system (DBMS) are two of the main components of any information system. Structured Query Language (SQL) is the most popular query language for retrieving data from the database, as well as for many other data management tasks. During system development and maintenance, software developers use a considerable amount of time to interpret compiler error messages. The quality of these error messages has been demonstrated to affect software development effectiveness, and correctly formulating queries and fixing them when needed is an important task for many software developers. In this study, we set out to investigate how participants ( N = 152 ) …

Moving from some perspectives of investigation emerged during the Roman law Seminar on ‘Orizzonti della critica testuale fra tradizione e nuovi indirizzi’, held in Palermo (16 november 2018), the A. examines a ‘comparison’ between texts, respectively, of Justinian’s Institutes and Digest [I. 2.11.5 = Marc. 4 inst. D. 29.1.22], analyzed by Lauro Chiazzese in the manuscript discovered and recently published by Giuseppe Falcone [Confronti testuali. Contributo alla dottrina delle interpolazioni giustinianee, Parte speciale (Materiali), collana Fonti - 4 degli Annali del Seminario giuridico dell’Università di Palermo, Torino 2018].
