    Well, doing programming is a pressured job.. specially when you need to meet the deadline for the project... For me, I have to make it a point that I do my job very well and finished it within the frame time... With regards to your question...well, I guess it's both... job is a big competition, you have to do your best to be on the top...;) :rose: :rose: Samantha:rose:

        She is a liar. In fact she is not she but he. His name is Imran Farooqui. I got her/his mail address from codeproject and checked the MSN profile. It matches with the mail address but the name is of a boy. Secondly I live in Karachi too and palm devices are not used extensively that someone would require too develop apps. and he is a member of CodeProject since 1 October 2001. I am 99 percent sure its a lie. LIAR LIAR LIAR. There cant be any company in Pakistan having 16 gals out of 21. IMPOSSIBLE. These are the kinda guys who try to spoil the name of my country. :mad: In my dream, I was dorwning in my §orrow§ But my §orrow§, they learned to §wim

          She is a liar. Infact she is not a she but he. Lying about the ID. His name is Imran Farooqui.I live in Karachi and I am sure there cant be any company having 16 gals out of 21. Also nobody uses palm that much that he would require a software for that. Read my this message I am 99% sure he is not she but is he pretending to be she distracting ppl who are here to gain some serious knowledge about programming.:rolleyes: In my dream, I was dorwning in my §orrow§ But my §orrow§, they learned to §wim

                    Welcome to the lounge! >> 21 VC++ developers among which 16 are female + (profile) >> North Pakistan No wonder I never met a geek girl in my live*... I always considered Pakistan "liberal islamic" - but the 15:21 ratio seems to tell a different story. So how is it?

                        I'm out numbered by quite a bit. I'm one of the few guys where there are more women than male programmers. Ist not bad though, and it keeps the sick jokes to a minimum. Welcome all the same. CP's a good place to be, and lots of smart people to learn things from. Giles

The graphics team is all men. But the 4 programming teams [3 java and one win32 team] which together has 18 programmers boasts of 12 women :-) Nish

I've a (female) friend in Sydney who can out code almost any one I know (and probably beat the crap out of anyone I know as well, since she's a kick boxer) and it's odd that people think it strange that she is a programmer (just 'coz she's a girl) cheers, Chris Maunder

                                        not to be taken the wrong way or anything but ... is it such a big deal to be a woman programmer who can actually write good code? kinda just get on with the job ... making a fuss about it is like admitting its a strange thing and kinda makes the guys in the industry think like they do ... ie programming is really a guy thing just my 2cents worth and all coding is coding is coding --- "every year we invent better idiot proof systems and every year they invent better idiots ... and the linux zealots still aren't being sterilized"

Of course there are quite some online, but you know - on the net you never know if it's a dog. I don't think "ladies are weaker programmers because they are ladies", but they just don't do (with a few exceptions). Germans could make chinese food and eat with sticks - but they don't do.
