This document discusses pair programming, which involves two programmers working together on the same design, algorithm, code, or test. The benefits of pair programming include improved quality through continuous review, less defects through early detection, improved problem solving abilities, and higher productivity through less distraction. Pair programming also leads to better learning, team communication, and risk mitigation. Challenges include difficulty convincing stakeholders and dealing with strong individual code ownership. The document provides examples of pairing techniques and tips to implement pair programming successfully.
