works in a public environment. At KTH all the lab assignments are in front of the
computers which you know work. And the person you are presenting to knows what you
are doing. What we do in this course is present to people who don’t have the same
understanding of what you are doing. So you have to explain to people in a different
way. Also, it is much more likely to break if you are presenting for a long time to a lot of
people. You have to be sure that your code doesn’t break and know what to do when
your code breaks. It is most definitely worth the extra effort.”
