Paragraph about Scientific software

The heart of the SW approach is the separation between content and appearance. The purpose of writing is to convey ideas, so the creative process of forming ideas and putting them into words Scientific software should be the writer's primary concern. The mechanical process of displaying the document on the printed page in the most readable and organized format is the function of typesetting, not writing, and should not be the writer's primary concern.

This separation of the creative process of writing from the mechanical process of layout is known as logical design. mathlab Logical design results in greatly increased productivity because the writer is freed from formatting concerns and can focus on creating content. Logical design also leads to better, more consistent typeset results because choices of fonts, spacing, emphasis, and countless other aspects of the document's appearance are made automatically. Before SW, this approach was only available in batch systems like TeX, LaTeX, and other production typesetting systems which use markup languages.
