Things are complicated enough as they are. Here is a curated list of “simple explanations” (of programming concepts) I’ve prepared. I hope you find it useful:

• Asynchronous vs synchronous execution, what does it really mean?

• What is hashCode used for? Is it unique?

• What is the difference between loose coupling and tight coupling in the object oriented paradigm?

• What is duck typing?

• What are sessions? How do they work?

• What is serialisation?

• Where and how is the term used WRAPPER in programming, what does it help to do?

• What is JSON?

• What is a Shim?

• Can anyone explain IEnumerable and IEnumerator to me?

• How to remember the break vs continue constructs in c#

• What is polymorphism?

What have I learned?

• Use analogies.

• If possible, use pictures/diagrams.

• Use humour.

• Keep it as simple as possible. KISS.

• Keep it short.
