Having never interviewed as a programmer, I've never had the luxury of solving random programmer problems that hiring managers ask in interviews sometimes. I was reading this article here:
http://blog.codinghorror.com/why-cant-programmers-program/
And decided to give the Fizz Buzz problem a try. This took me about all of 2 minutes. I may have spent more time creating this gist and adding the comment than I did on the script. I'm a Linux SysAdmin and I guess these days, you could call me DevOps - not even a programmer by job title. Is it really that bad out there trying to hire programmers?
