According to one Quora discussion thread, it’s:

Naming Things (functions, variables, etc.) at 49%.

The right names which should be clear and concise is often difficult to be descriptive enough and capture meaning in just a few words.

Others that were named in the survey:

Explaining what I do/don’t do (16%)

Estimating (10%)

Dealing with other people (8%)

Working with someone else’s code (8%)

Speaking of names, how about some rap lyrics:

“From the depths of the sea, back to the block

Snoop Doggy Dogg, funky as the, the, The DOC

Went solo on that a*$, but it’s still the same

Long Beach is the spot where I served my cane

…

Then I step through the fog and I creep through the smog

Cause I’m Snoop Doggy (who?) Doggy (what?) Doggy (Dogg)”

~Who Am I (What’s My Name)? – Snoop Dogg
