    You might have noticed that this is predominately a Microsoft-oriented site... What a piece of work is man, how noble in reason, how infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and admirable . . . and yet to me, what is this quintessence of dust? -- Hamlet, Act II, Scene ii.

        Hey, I learned Pascal, BASIC, FORTRAN and ANSI C/C++ in college... at least there are some employers looking for Java programmers! Still, the role of most college & university programs is to teach concepts: what is an algorithm? What is design? What is refactoring? A good student can later implement those ideas in any language.

              Yes, there's a lot of good programmers out there who either haven't been to college or didn't do computer science or even a so-called "numerate" degree. Kevin

                Please forgive me, but what in the heck is a "numerate degree". (I'z jest a po 'merican bo, I ain't nevr herd'a no "numerate" degrees. Ain't that what them scientists put on them there thermo-meters?)

                  If I'm interpreting this site[^] correctly, in some parts of the world they use the term numerate[^] to refer to degree programs in the applied sciences. I had to look it up as, despite my perfectly functional vocabulary, I've never heard the term used before. As an adjective it means 'able to understand and use numbers' - how quaint.:laugh: Heard in Bullhead City - "You haven't lost your girl -
                  you've just lost your turn..." [sigh] So true...

They mean you must have a degree in a pure or applied science with a mathematics content. Kevin

                      Ah, just so. BSEE/BSCE for example. Not that I've ever met one of those who could actually start writing code, "out-of-the-box" so to speak. ;) What a piece of work is man, how noble in reason, how infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and admirable . . . and yet to me, what is this quintessence of dust? -- Hamlet, Act II, Scene ii.

                        Yes, we also often read job postings that read like "The ideal candidate will have a Dual Ph.D. in Astrophysics and Computer Science, along with 15 years of relevant experience with J2EE, MSVC++, SQL2004, C#, .NET Framework, DreamWeaver MX, Adobe PhotoShop ..."
