A Statistic on Programmers

The instructor from my Java class today revealed a shocking statistic today on us programmer types — on average, a programmer writes less than 10 lines of code each hour.

I hope the management-types never find this out…

Quick. Here’s a multiple choice question:

The statement above infers that programmers are:
a. slackers
b. taken for granted
c. earning more per hour while doing less work
d. inefficient
e. masters of disguise

NOTE: Sorry… I’ve been cramming too hard on the GRE; now everything I see is composed of multiple choices. Did I mention I hate studying for crappy and useless exams like SAT, GRE, GMAT and the like?
