5 Tips for Faster Graphs
Five tips for speeding up graph generation in Understand.
Measuring Your Code
Learn about the available metrics in Understand, the ways to explore them, and how they can help you solve problems.
How Hard is it?
Understand is used to determine how much work it would take to create a database that reads files from a git repository.
Short-term memory overload while debugging
The decisions you make while thinking about code are far too complicated to trust to memory. Ken shows how Understand helps you not rely on short term memory and walk code in an organized fashion that misses nothing.
Hyper-Xref in Understand
If you want to make smarter, safer, and testable changes you need to know exactly where what you are changing will affect. Hyper-Xref technology, and the GUI and API/DevOps tools in Understand make you a safer, smarter engineer less likely to add bugs as you change code.
