I have been working for over 7 years, till now I did not come across
any company doing pair programming???

Usually pair-programming is done if an expert is trying to help his
colleague on some technical issue.....

This newsgroup is dedicated to eXtreme Programming, which is a system that
advises every team start every project and every module with two programmers
collaborating together on each design task. XP teams typically build "Pair
Stations", which are workstations configured with dual keyboards and mice.
Teams often rotate pairs, and as a project matures teams often slack off on
pairing, and operate in solo on mature code.

The goal is to _start_ with pairing, before that colleague gets into
trouble.

Both clinical studies and a considerable volume of anecdotes have shown that
two people pairing are more productive, over time, than two alone. The
biggest reason is reducing amount of false starts and rework. The minor
reasons include spreading design understanding, sharing the burden of
testing, reducing bugs, and improving the designs to the intersection (not
the union) of each pair's comfort zone.

Note to Sanjay: Research how other surveys are conducted, typically with an
online CGI form. You and your instructors may also approve to use a public
survey system.
