Systems and methods for automatic code generation

An apparatus comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus to:
• display a user interface (UI) element associated with UT program code;
• receive a value setting of a UI control of the UI element;
• execute the UI program code, the execution of the UI program code triggered by the receipt of the value setting, the execution of the UI program code producing a first result comprising a computational result that is graphically displayed by the UI element;
• and
• generate, during the execution of the UI program code, second program code that, when executed, produces the computational result, wherein, to generate the second program code, the instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus to:
• determine a portion of the UI program code that, when executed with the value setting, generates the first result;
• obtain the portion;
• determine an organizational structure of the portion, the organizational structure including a plurality of stages;
• determine, in one or more of the plurality of stages, a first segment of code that accesses the value setting and a second segment of code that does not access the value setting;
• and
• replace the first segment with the value setting.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:

• receive a value setting of a UI control of a UI element, the UI element associated with UI program code;
• execute the UI program code, the execution of the UI program code triggered by the receipt of the value setting, the execution of the UI program code producing a computational result;
• and
• generate, following the execution of the UI program code, second program that, when executed, produces the computational result, wherein, to generate the second program code, the instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
• determine a portion of the UI program code that, when executed with the value setting, generates the computational result;
• obtain the portion;
• determine an organizational structure of the portion, the organizational structure including a plurality of stages;
• determine, in one or more of the plurality of stages, a first segment of code that accesses the value setting and a second segment of code that does not access the value setting;
• and
• replace the first segment with the value setting.
