分析大模型生成代码的可读性问题，发现提示词设计能有效改善但仍有局限。

Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly changing how code is produced, but generated code still requires human review and validation before it can be adapted or integrated into real-world projects. This makes the readability of LLM-generated code a critical concern. Existing studies have mainly focused on functional correctness and task completion of LLM generated code, leaving open questions about whether it is readable, how its readability fails, and to what extent prompt design can improve it. We therefore investigate the readability of LLM-generated code. We first construct a readability assessment model that integrates textual, structural, program, and visual features. Using this model, we compare human-written code with code generated by representative frontier LLMs across 2,735 scenarios derived from World of Code (WoC) and LeetCode. We further characterize readability issue patterns using thematic analysis and examine prompt design associations through controlled prompt-variant experiments. Our results show that current LLMs produce code that is comparable to human-written code in overall readability. However, this aggregate similarity masks distinct issue patterns, including excessive complexity, redundant comments, and unknown API usage. Prompt analysis further shows that function signature, constraints, and style description are most strongly associated with code readability, although the overall role of prompt design remains bounded. These findings reveal latent readability debt in AI-assisted programming, identify prompt design as a lightweight starting point for improving generated-code readability, and motivate automated support for detecting and mitigating readability issues in future development workflows.
