Abstract
In Sect. 1.4, we identified several challenges for program synthesis, among others the vastness of search space and the intricate way in which program code determines the effects of computation. In this chapter, we identify and discuss the consequences of the conventional approach to program evaluation in generative program synthesis. Though focused mostly on the generative paradigm of GP, some of the observations made here apply to other generative synthesis approaches.
