Abstract

Nested if-then-else statements is the most common programming schema in applications like data transformation or data analysis. In most cases, these can be replaced by higher level pattern matching constructs, rendering the code more readable and easier to maintain. We present a tool that integrates strong semantically grounded pattern matching features in Java via a plug-in for the Eclipse platform.
