Homonym: hooking (Connection)
Hooking is a technique used in various contexts, such as programming and fishing. In programming, it refers to intercepting function calls or events to modify their behavior without altering the original code. This allows developers to add features or debug applications more efficiently.
In fishing, hooking involves using a baited hook to catch fish. The hook is designed to penetrate the fish's mouth when it bites, allowing the angler to reel it in. Proper technique and equipment are essential for successful hooking, ensuring a balance between attracting fish and securing them once caught.
