Why are we doing this?

In your technical interview, you may be asked to play computer.

Tip

Playing computer means simulating how the computer executes our code. We "step through" the code, line by line, and work out what the computer does when it follows each instruction.

Practice playing computer now. Find a blocked feature or technical question with linked code. Play computer and step through line by line. Can you predict the output or find the problem?

Talk through your process in the Slack thread or ticket conversation.
