    Code Ahoy[^]:

    Software developers, especially those who are new to the field, often ask this question or at least wonder whether they are good developers or just good at googling up solutions.

    Seemingly more than some of the users in Q&A

        Yes... 1. Also experienced programmers learn... 2. To be experienced programmer doesn't mean you know the exact syntax of every method of every class of every language you ever worked with

                  My father always said... Experience is not making you smater, it makes easier to know where to find what you need. And in Germany it is said: You can be dumb, as long as you know how to help yourself.

                  M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

                    Szent-Györgyi Albert (a Nobel prize owner) one had an interview in his library-room and the interviewer told, that for sure he is so smart because he read all those books...Hes response was, that to be smart is not to know the content of those books, but to find the right book for the current question in the library...
