Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Pair programming is a software development technique in which two programmers work together at one workstation. One, the driver, writes code while the other, the observer or navigator, reviews each line of code as it is typed in. The two programmers switch roles frequently.

Detailed explanation-2: -Pair programming is an Agile software development technique originating from Extreme programming (XP) in which two developers team together on one computer. The two people work together to design, code and test user stories.

Detailed explanation-3: -One programmer (called the driver) writes the code while the other (the observer) watches, reviews, and provides guidance. The two programmers switch roles frequently.

Detailed explanation-4: -Below are two examples of pair programming techniques: (1) Pomodoro pairing. A timer is set for 25 minutes, where one person is the driver and the other the navigator. Every 25 minutes, you have a short break and switch roles.

Detailed explanation-5: -The definition of pair programming Pair programming is when two programmers work together on the same computer. One, the ‘driver, ’ works on writing the code while the other, the ‘navigator’ reviews the lines of code as they’re typed. The two regularly swap places as the work progresses.
