The prompt

Explain this code to me line by line, as if I'm learning. Code: [paste] Language: [if known] My level: [beginner / some experience] What I'm trying to understand: [e.g. what this function returns, why this loop is here] Do this: 1. A 2-3 sentence summary of what the whole code does. 2. A line-by-line or block-by-block explanation in plain words, with the code shown next to each explanation. 3. A walk-through with one small example input, showing how values change step by step. 4. Terms I might not know, explained in one line each. 5. Anything that looks risky or buggy, flagged but not rewritten unless I ask. Don't assume what code you can't see does; say what you'd need to see.
