ABSTRACT:
A method for displaying on an image plane of a display unit a first area as an area representative of array data and displaying in place of the first area the, in response to a first input from an input device which assigns a position on the image plane of the first area and a first process applied to some elements of the array data, as an area representative of the array data, a second area having at least two partial areas including the partial areas include a first partial area representative of a group of elements subjected to the first process and a second partial area representative of a group of elements not subjected to the first process a program is generated, in response to a position in the image plane of at least one partial area in the second area and a third input instructing the program generation input from the input device after the second input from the input device assigning the second process applied to a group of elements corresponding to the at least one partial area. The program applies the second process to a group of elements corresponding to the at least one partial area after the first process has been executed with respect to some elements of the array data.
