Hi Everyone,
We (me and Richard Bornat) seem to have a test that predicts ability to program with very high accuracy before the subjects have ever seen a program or a programming language. we have a test which picks out the population that can program, before the course begins. We can pick apart the double hump. We don't know exactly how/why it works, but we have some good theories. A draft paper which incorporates some of the criticism we got at Coventry mini-PPIG in January and the University of Kent and all other relevant files are available on my website: http://www.cs.mdx.ac.uk/research/PhDArea/saeed/ <http://www.cs.mdx.ac.uk/research/PhDArea/saeed/> We are planning to conduct the test in a broader scale. Please contact us if you are interested to collaborate: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Kind regards, Saeed Dehnadi ---------------------------------------------------------------------- PPIG Discuss List (discuss@ppig.org) Discuss admin: http://limitlessmail.net/mailman/listinfo/discuss Announce admin: http://limitlessmail.net/mailman/listinfo/announce PPIG Discuss archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/discuss%40ppig.org/
