What are some benefits of Pair Programming?

What are some drawbacks to Pair Programming?

  1. Pair programming, also called parter programming, is when two programmers are working on one computer. There is generally one person on the keyboard, and one person helping out and giving general direction.

  2. Some of the advantages is the better scope of the entire project the group has. Another advantage is that they are less likely to get stuck, because there are two brains on a problem.

  3. Some disadvantages are the inability to force it. You cant just tell two people to do that if they don't get along, or else they will just fight the whole time.
