Explain code

This prompt helps you understand code snippets by transforming technical code into plain, simple explanations anyone can follow. It's perfect for non-programmers who want to grasp what a piece of code does without needing to learn programming languages.

How to Use

1. Copy the code you want to understand
2. Paste it into the {{code}} variable
3. Submit the prompt
4. Receive a well-formatted, non-technical explanation broken down into digestible sections

Variables Explained

• {{code}}: The code snippet you want explained. This can be in any programming language. Copy and paste the entire code block, including any comments that might be in the original.

Tips for Best Results

• Include complete code: The more complete the code snippet, the better the explanation will be
• Keep functions together: Try to include complete functions rather than fragments
• Include comments: If the original code has comments, include them as they provide additional context
• Format properly: Make sure code indentation is preserved when you paste it

Example Usage

Instead of trying to decipher this Python code yourself:

def calculate_total(items):
    total = 0
    for item in items:
        total += item['price'] * item['quantity']
    return total

You'll receive a well-organized explanation with headers, descriptions of what each part does in non-technical language, and references back to the specific code being explained.
