Source code documentation is a plain text that explains how to use it based on role and entitlement from different scope.
While
creating software, coding alone is not enough for future maintenance reference.
There should be some text along with the code that could represent the specific
purpose of a piece of code. It is very comfortable for developer to generate the
documentation part of source code without worrying about it too much because it
is self extracted from source code itself.
There
are so many tools to generate documentation from source supported programming
language named GhostDoc, SandCastle, Live Documenter, Atomineer Pro Documentation,
Oxygen etc.
