The demos 'demonstrate' how to solve various problems and how to use various features. Shouldn't the programmers reference document the interface?I think there's also room for simple demos that illustrate the use of basic classes like Mesh, MeshFunction, input/output, linear algebra, parameters etc like we have now, without necessarily solving a PDE.
Yes, sure. The example code in the programmer's reference should just cover one function and the immediate usage, but then we can link to a demo that puts the use in a more elaborate context. Kristian
