    From the BBC

    7 questions on computer programs.

    The title's a little misleading, history is involved as well. Anyway I got 6/7, question 4 caught me out.

    It'll be interesting to know the scores of others (no cheating :)).

    5 out of 7, a big surprise. I couldn't write a line of code if my life depended on it.

    Snap, I've never heard of Pizza or Concrete but Concrete seemed the safer bet.

    4 out of 7 from an old geezer who built his first computer in 2004. I wouldn't even try to understand programming at my age. Very interesting challenge though.
    The biggest problem really is teaching the young ones to spell - they know txt speak but that won't help them get a job. Neil.
