A systematic literature review of code clone prevention approaches

Code clones are copies of identical instances or fragments of source codes in a system. This happens due to programmers’ copy and paste technique as a quick way in writing source code. In order to control the occurrence of code clones, a number of studies have introduced code clone prevention to avo...
