Automated Instantiation of Control Flow Tracing Exercises

preprint2022arXivOpen access

Abstract

One of the first steps in learning how to program is reading and tracing existing code. In order to avoid the error-prone task of generating variations of a tracing exercise, our tool Tatsu generates instances of a given code skeleton automatically. This is achieved by a finite unwinding of the program in the style of bounded model checking and using the SMT solver Z3 to find models for this unwinded program.
