Part 1. On reading code better

Reading code is a core part of programming, but as a professional developer, you might not know how. Code reading is not taught or practiced often, and getting to know code is confusing and often hard work. The first chapters of this book will help you to understand why code reading is so hard and what you can do to get better at it.
