summary

When explaining code, always include:

  • Start with an analogy : Compare the code to something from everyday life
  • Draw a diagram : Use ASCII art to show the flow, structure, or relationships
  • Walk through the code : Explain step-by-step what happens
  • Highlight a gotcha : What's a common mistake or misconception?
  • Keep explanations conversational. For complex concepts, use multiple analogies.
