In this day and age, writing code is slowly but surely becoming akin to black magic. We interview perhaps 100-200 young engineers a month, and very few of them can write a bubble sort algorithm. Some indignantly claim that such sorting is “not required to write Java servlets”.

This is the era of mobile apps. The era of downloading a piece of code with five colourful screens for two dollars and thirty five cents. If you’re feeling charitable, that is. (And is your phone rooted?)
