3D code analysis
-
Anyone ever seen (or written themselves) a program that analyzes some source code (doesn't matter what language) and then produces some sort of 3D result? I'm not sure what the result would actually be but I would suspect that some interesting patterns would show up. I'm looking for something like this and was just curious if anyone else has thought of this.

I've worked with some stuff that did code path analysis and produced 2D charts showing where source code could be folded and refactored. Not sure what third dimension could be used for. A sales guy for the product used to say, "I've never met a GOTO that couldn't be replaced". :)

You can create a 3D model of a shit yourself. This will be the 3D output from most of the analyzed code anyway.

what would the 3 axis represent? Memory usage, cpu time, clock time? or i suppose you could start with a 2D UML diagram and then simply extrude out a shape on the 3rd axis by a single variable, such as a class diagram with height of class blocks determined by lines of code (which in turn could be 'displaced' by lines of code in each method).

If this is for artistic design, which might be cool (maybe only to us programmers), I think its worth doing. For general pattern discovery or novelty detection of sorts, the 3D representation may be independent of your main goal of actually discovering knowledge about your source code. The knowledge discovered could be presented in 3D, but what type of knowledge do you seek?

I've just finished reading it. It's actually very interesting. I'd like to see the prototype that they've developed.

You would have been perfect if you weren’t so humble. :-D

No problem. If the cloud shifts here, I'll be out looking for it.

I sometimes print out my code, especially when it was for homework, and then put the pages in a pile and staple them together to maintain the sort order. That also makes it 3D and I can then do an analysis without looking at the screen.

I wish I had some of that modelling skill, even at the price of being considered crazy. The way it is, I can write good 3D code and nobody really gives a damn because my models look too tacky :)

Are there really any good 3D visualizations out there for much of anything? I'm not sure we are all that good at processing 3D data. I can't really think of anything that isn't more than 2D with perspective. If there is, then I'm sure you can find something on Visual Complexity[^], or http://www.visualizing.org/[^]

Probably not. I was necessarily thinking practically. See my latest post [^]- is that something you might be interested in?
