nuetron 64 Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 I've been curious about the 43oh community for a while (and I'm sure others have been as well), so I'm going to post a few polls about the different people we have here. This is the first of several. As you get better in these subjects, you can update your vote. PS: If you have a better way to word these options, contact me! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SugarAddict 227 Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Does it count when you write crap code you know works for yourself but then tidy it up and write clean code when for others? lol I know that my code for all this stuff is only 1/2 what it could be, but it runs I picked the first choice for the Launchpad, though I question that a little, since I also picked the third choice for mcu's... :mrgreen: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GeekDoc 226 Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Wasn't sure how to answer the coding question. I consider myself an intermediate coder, but I still need some help coding for the MSP430. Does that count as beginner coder, or knowing little about microcontrollers (which I also marked)?

nuetron 64 Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 When creating a poll, you can add up to ten options for people to choose from, and set how many of those one user can check at once. So I set up a three-subject poll, with three options for each subject, eg. low, med, hi. The only problem was, I don't know quite how to word the questions. Can y'all think of a better way to phrase them? Wasn't sure how to answer the coding question. I consider myself an intermediate coder, but I still need some help coding for the MSP430. Does that count as beginner coder, or knowing little about microcontrollers (which I also marked)? IMHO, it would be knowing little about microcontrollers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cde 334 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I agree there should be a I can half ass it option between beginner and intermediate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MattTheGeek 99 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I know a lot about the launchpad. I know a lot about microcontrollers. I am an Excellent coder: I write very good and clear code. (Until unproven by 3rd party input ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
xpg 127 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Voted for "Excellent Coder", but I'm not quite sure that it's completely correct. I mean, even very skilled programmers are producing bugs on daily basis, which isn't exactly a good match for the word "excellent" :-) nuetron 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nuetron 64 Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 K. Changed to "Skilled" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
xpg 127 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 K. Changed to "Skilled" That's better. But it wasn't my intention to complain, I just couldn't help thinking about all those failed software projects the world has seen :shock: nuetron 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rockets4kids 204 Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Does anyone else find these categories ambiguous and overlapping, not to mention out of order? I think a 1-5 scale rating (1=can flash hello world, 5=can generate hex instructions in your head) would be more appropriate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nuetron 64 Posted May 28, 2013 Author Share Posted May 28, 2013 You're right, that is a better way to order a questionnaire. But, rather than modify this one, I think we should lock this one and start one afresh. Thoughts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
