The Effect of Code Obfuscation on Human Program Comprehension

This study investigates how varying levels of code obfuscation affect human program comprehension in Python and JavaScript, revealing that while obfuscation generally increases reasoning time and reduces accuracy, its impact is non-monotonic and language-specific, with moderate deliberation improving performance and experience proving more critical within specific languages than across them.
