N2 - Software developers increasingly rely on information from the Web, such as documents or code examples on Applica tion Programming Interfaces (APIs), to facilitate their devel opment processes. However, API documents of ten do not in clude enough information for developers to fully understand the API usages, while searching for good code examples re quires non-trivial effort. To address this problem, we propose a novel code search engine, combining the strength of browsing documents and searching for code examples, by returning documents embed ded with high-quality code example summaries mined from the Web. Our evaluation results show that our approach pro vides code examples with high precision and boosts program mer productivity.
