....as in other systems, and the animation may not reflect some aspects of it. At this point is necessary to clarify that VCC just analyzes the semantics of simple program instructions rather than composed statements. In fact, VCC does not try to understand what the program does as other tools [12, 13]. It only analyzes every data action, and follows a set of simple rules to generate the graphical code. A program is compiled by just using vcc program.c, then run the executable file. The organization of the rest of the chapter is as follows: the next section describes related work; we then give ....

....needs skills beyond a novice student, and for some cases an expert may be needed. Other educational experiences are GIL (Graphical Instruction for Lisp) 36] and DISCOVER [35] Both tools are helpful for small programs, but better systems must be developed to advance beyond toy examples. In [14], it is claimed that to achieve a good high level abstraction of software the visualization must be generated automatically, and in an intelligent manner. The latter means that the system has to try to understand the software as much as possible to provide a clear abstraction. In other words, a ....
....much as possible to provide a clear abstraction. In other words, a good AI system is needed. There are experiences on using AI for teaching programming, but describing them is outside the scope of this paper. One of the few visual systems that are automatic and partly intelligent is Paradocs Viz [14]. We agree on the need of automatic tools, but another approach for intelligent systems is to give the user simple but powerful tools to adapt the system to his her needs. We think that this approach might be more successful than intelligent heuristics. 5 Potential Usage Performance issues and ....
