And I can immediately adjust the way I play the note so it sounds better next time. And when I'm writing code, I get immediate feedback from my IDE, my integrated development environment. Is the code underlined in an angry red squiggly line? Well then it won't compile and I adjust it immediately. By doing so I learn the right way to write that code. In this diagram we see the feedback loops of extreme programming in scales ranging from months to seconds. At large scale we see release…
