Intent/Further Readings
Intent does not come from nowhere : most of the theories used to create Intent are not new. This section references scientific papers and other sources that were used to create Intent, or that are related to Intent's concerns.
- Literate Progamming, by Donald E. Knuth.
Donald E. Knuth has brought most of the concepts used in Intent. Literate Programming is a methodology that combines a programming language with a documentation language.

In addition of being passionating, Knuth has a writing style that will not let you indifferent.
