What Does Partitioning Code Mean?
Partitioning code is a method used for making a large code base or project manageable by breaking up different segments of it into smaller chunks that can be handled easily, as opposed to a large code that can have many areas of failure and take up large portions of a disk as well as take a very long time to compile.
Techopedia Explains Partitioning Code
Partitioning code is used to make code development more manageable, especially in the area of code management, project management and code tracking. It breaks down a large endeavor such as an enterprise level system development that might span multiple features and teams. This effectively breaks up a large task into smaller pieces that can be tackled by different teams in parallel, making development faster. In Microsoft’s .Net environment and Visual Studio, this is done via assemblies and namespaces.
