A friend pointed me towards an interesting article.
And after reviewing it, I can say I am both horrified and unsurprised.
Why?
Because I have met several people who claim they are coders, who, when actually confronted with coding work, just can’t DO it.
You ask them about linked lists, and data structures, binary chop and recursion.
They nod their head, make some reassuring NOISES.
But, when you show them some code and ask them to change something, they go blank, fumble and say they will get back to you.
