I have been asked to come up with a few simple test questions for programmers.
In this case for .NET and C# but the examples I am working on should work in any language since they are more about common programming problems and solutions than any particular language or framework.
I have produced one here (
http://www.mindmesh.net/matrixtransform.pdf).
I have some questions that I just know you lizards will be able to help me with.
Constructive criticism only please.
1) Do you think this is any good ?
2) How much harder do you think this would be if I removed the diagrams (i.e. without any visualisation aids) ? Do you think it would be a fair/fairer/more relevant test without these ?
3) If the question did not have the diagrams or the snippets of code do you think the average programmer would still be able to understand it well enough to answer it ?
4) I have solutions for this. If you have time, I would be interested to see what different solutions people come up with and how different they are in both general approach and implementation.
Thanks.
