Representing branching and comparative analyses in computational notebooks is complicated by the 1-dimensional (1D), top-down list arrangement of cells. Given the ubiquity of these and other non-linear features, their importance to analysis and narrative, and the struggles current 1D computational notebooks have, enabling organization of computational notebook cells in 2 dimensions (2D) may prove valuable. We investigated whether and how users would organize cells in such a "2D Computational Notebook" through a user study and gathered feedback from participants through a follow-up survey and optional interviews. Through the user study, we found 3 main design patterns for arranging notebook cells in 2D: Linear, Multi-Column, and Workboard. Through the survey and interviews, we found that users see potential value in 2D Computational Notebooks for branching and comparative analyses, but the expansion from 1D to 2D may necessitate additional navigational and organizational aids.
