Having to read someone else Java code. Even worse, thousands of lines, maybe hundreds of files of other people code. Is there a way to methodically read and understand other peoples write code, build their mental models? This talk goes through techniques that have been developed throughout 18 years of programming. Hopefully, you will walk away with a plan on how to approach a new code base. But even more, you would get a feeling of curiosity, wanting to get to know your fellow programmers through their code.
