Abstract

In the previous chapter, we discussed using code katas to help prepare yourself for an interview. However, there is a little bit more to it than just simple preparation. In this chapter, we’ll discuss some ideas for fully unlocking the potential of code katas. If you do code katas well, you can not only prepare for an interview more effectively but you can also improve general coding skills. In this chapter, we’ll explain a simple code kata, using the FizzBuzz coding exercise.
