    Talking Poll: How good are you?

    How good is everyone on the board? Let's see! These are what each one is:
    Begginer Console- I can print to the screen and make a calculator program without looking it up

    Intermediate Console- I have made a pretty decent text program and can succesfully use arrays.

    Advanced Console- I can make functions that call pointers to arrays that point to pointers, and this function uses recursion and all that other stuff (I can do all console things)

    Begginer Graphics- I can make pong and I am everything above

    Intermediate Graphics- My games/programs are actually interesting. People that are non-programmers have willingly tried them out

    Advanced Graphics- People can't wait till the next realease of my new OS. (I can do just about anything I want)

    part, so i mis complicated things you can do with console's

    Whoa...

    Hey I didn't mean my poll to set criteria dude. Calm down and slow down. This was just a little poll to see how many people on the "board" can program good, bad, or in the best condition possible, extremely good. I'd like to test some good games, while learning C++ and I thought a poll would be a good way to do it. Hey if you can make pong, great! I didn't mean to make it as if it was nothing, cuz I am inter. console. Jeeez, say one thing wrong and I'm flamed, what a board...

    I don't like the way the options are set up. It implies graphics programming is the next tier in a programmer's lifetime after console, and although graphics is in fact popular, I've seen some programming geniuses who never leave Platform specific development.

    EDIT: Could you please define what you think Beginning Graphics is? Intermediate graphics? Advanced Graphics?

    I could probably easily fit into the first two.

    And you amount of knowledge you have of something,
    like you're assuming someone knows all about c++ & consoles

    Quite frankly, I don't feel comfortable near his aura of obnoxious ignorance

    And you should've had combinations. I'm pretty advanced console, and a beginner-intermediate ate APIs and graphics.

    ok, i have a question
    what or how would you define
    then one from another
    like
    what's your opinion of the difference between
    Advanced and Beginer
    I have done a lot of OpenGL graphics but im not the greatest console programmer.

    So, what's what?
    Asking the right question is sometimes more important than knowing the answer.

    We are programmers. We look at life like a computer program. This is not english where there are many answers and you hope to have the one your teacher likes. There are speficics. Definitions. Nothing is unsure (well, come on some things). Of course programmers are going to be so analytic to a post like this.
