The Characteristics of a Master of Programming

Today I was thinking about the characteristics that a master of programming has.  From experience I have found that some personality traits can be learned.

This is the list of characteristics that I came up with:

  • He loves programming.
  • He enjoys being creative.
  • He is organized.
  • He is calm.
  • He has lots of knowledge and experience.
  • He enjoys learning.
  • He is open minded, so he likes asking questions and getting his work peer reviewed, and does the best he can with the information he receives.
  • He loves challenges and is confident in his ability to solve any problem.
  • He is 100% focused on creating perfect software.  Nothing else matters.
  • He is always looking for the most effective way to write a piece of code or solve a problem.
What do you think?
