'''Web''' is a [[computer programming]] system created by [[Donald E. Knuth]] as the first implementation of what he called "[[literate programming]]": the idea that one could create [[software]] as works of [[literature]], by embedding source code inside descriptive text, rather than the reverse (as is common practice in most [[programming languages]]), in an order that is convenient for exposition to human readers, rather than in the order demanded by the compiler.
