Re: Analytical or Intuitive?

Hi

I thought it was an interesting survey. The questions were nicely
phrased I thought. I was definitely at the scattier end of the scale,
with a score of 24. I'm wondering if this means that I'm definitely not
suited to becoming a programmer. On the other hand I do often get a lot
of satisfaction from the creativity involved in programming. I would
definitely be under the impression that analytical types would be
better suited for programming though, as they are likely to be more
thorough. Fascinating stuff though.
