This is still one of my favorite techniques for problem solving. Been doing it for years without having a name for it.
Your post has given me a wonderful name to use when I teach the technique to others - one that no one ever forgets.
Interestingly, it seems that the term ârubber duck debuggingâ has been coined in 1976 by Stack Overflow user greg-449 (cf. greg-449âs Developer Story), who is an amazingly helpful and swift answerer on all questions [eclipse] and [eclipse-rcp], which is enough reason for an honorary mention here.
