Finding the Right Programmer.

I was trying to find to resurces to properly evaluate programming candidates and i stumbled upon this article which i thought was perfect 10/10 measure to exactly identify a good progammer. But i am not sure how good this articale will be if we had to apply the same logic in a country like india, where exposure to computers only starts after college. (But when i put down myself in the same race, i did bunk my +2 tutions and school classes to hang out in internet cafes and try out Suse linux 6.3 using at that time's most advanced installation module-Yast2. Now when i look at myself. i almost manage to score a 9 out of 10 in these questions. ) . Read on this will be really intresting if you are really into programming. Finding the Right Programmer.
