DOCUMENTATION DEFINITION (continued):
sometimes used to mean the source information about the product contained in design documents, detailed code comments, white papers, and blackboard session notes. The term is derived from the idea that engineers and programmers "document" their products in formal writing. The earliest computer users were sometimes simply handed the engineers' or programmers' "documentation." As the product audience grew, it became necessary to add professional technical writers and editors to the process.
