재미로 한번 보려고 했으나... 

나의 역량은 아직 고수가 되기에는 한참 못 미친다는 것을 다시 확인하였다. 

좀더 노력하자꾸나...

Programmer Competency Matrix

Note that the knowledge for each level is cumulative; being at level n implies that you also know everything from the levels lower than n.

Computer Science
	2n (Level 0)	n2 (Level 1)	n (Level 2)	log(n) (Level 3)	Comments
data structures	Doesn't know the difference between Array and LinkedList	Able to explain and use Arrays, LinkedLists, Dictionaries etc in practical programming tasks	Knows space and time tradeoffs of the basic data structures, Arrays vs LinkedLists, Able to explain how hashtables can be implemented and can handle collisions, Priority queues and ways to implement them etc.	Knowledge of advanced data structures like B-trees, binomial and fibonacci heaps, AVL/Red Black trees, Splay Trees, Skip Lists, tries etc.
algorithms	Unable to find the average of numbers in an array (It's hard to believe but I've interviewed such candidates)	Basic sorting, searching and data structure traversal and retrieval algorithms	Tree, Graph, simple greedy and divide and conquer algorithms, is able to understand the relevance of the levels of this matrix.	Able to recognize and code dynamic programming solutions, good knowledge of graph algorithms, good knowledge of numerical computation algorithms, able to identify NP problems etc.	Working with someone who has a good topcoder ranking would be an unbelievable piece of luck!

Understands what assembly code is and how things work at the hardware level. Some knowledge of virtual memory and paging.	Understands kernel mode vs. user mode, multi-threading, synchronization primitives and how they're implemented, able to read assembly code. Understands how networks work, understanding of network protocols and socket level programming.	Understands the entire programming stack, hardware (CPU + Memory + Cache + Interrupts + microcode), binary code, assembly, static and dynamic linking, compilation, interpretation, JIT compilation, garbage collection, heap, stack, memory addressing...

automated testing	Thinks that all testing is the job of the tester	Has written automated unit tests and comes up with good unit test cases for the code that is being written	Has written code in TDD manner	Understands and is able to setup automated functional, load/performance and UI tests
Programming
	2n (Level 0)	n2 (Level 1)	n (Level 2)	log(n) (Level 3)	Comments
problem decomposition	Only straight line code with copy paste for reuse	Able to break up problem into multiple functions	Able to come up with reusable functions/objects that solve the overall problem	Use of appropriate data structures and algorithms and comes up with generic/object-oriented code that encapsulate aspects of the problem that are subject to change.
systems decomposition	Not able to think above the level of a single file/class	Able to break up problem space and design solution as long as it is within the same platform/technology	Able to design systems that span multiple technologies/platforms.	Able to visualize and design complex systems with multiple product lines and integrations with external systems. Also should be able to design operations support systems like monitoring, reporting, fail overs etc.
communication	Cannot express thoughts/ideas to peers. Poor spelling and grammar.	Peers can understand what is being said. Good spelling and grammar.	Is able to effectively communicate with peers	Able to understand and communicate thoughts/design/ideas/specs in a unambiguous manner and adjusts communication as per the context	This is an often under rated but very critical criteria for judging a programmer. With the increase in outsourcing of programming tasks to places where English is not the native tongue this issue has become more prominent. I know of several projects that failed because the programmers could not understand what the intent of the communication was.
code organization within a file	no evidence of organization within a file	Methods are grouped logically or by accessibility	Code is grouped into regions and well commented with references to other source files	File has license header, summary, well commented, consistent white space usage. The file should look beautiful.

code organization across files	No thought given to organizing code across files	Related files are grouped into a folder	Each physical file has a unique purpose, for e.g. one class definition, one feature implementation etc.	Code organization at a physical level closely matches design and looking at file names and folder distribution provides insights into design
source tree organization	Everything in one folder	Basic separation of code into logical folders.	No circular dependencies, binaries, libs, docs, builds, third-party code all organized into appropriate folders	Physical layout of source tree matches logical hierarchy and organization. The directory names and organization provide insights into the design of the system.	The difference between this and the previous item is in the scale of organization, source tree organization relates to the entire set of artifacts that define the system.
code readability	Mono-syllable names	Good names for files, variables classes, methods etc.	No long functions, comments explaining unusual code, bug fixes, code assumptions	Code assumptions are verified using asserts, code flows naturally - no deep nesting of conditionals or methods
defensive coding	Doesn't understand the concept	Checks all arguments and asserts critical assumptions in code	Makes sure to check return values and check for exceptions around code that can fail.	Has his own library to help with defensive coding, writes unit tests that simulate faults
	2n (Level 0)	n2 (Level 1)	n (Level 2)	log(n) (Level 3)	Comments
error handling	Only codes the happy case	Basic error handling around code that can throw exceptions/generate errors	Ensures that error/exceptions leave program in good state, resources, connections and memory is all cleaned up properly	Codes to detect possible exception before, maintain consistent exception handling strategy in all layers of code, come up with guidelines on exception handling for entire system.
IDE	Mostly uses IDE for text editing	Knows their way around the interface, able to effectively use the IDE using menus.	Knows keyboard shortcuts for most used operations.	Has written custom macros
API	Needs to look up the documentation frequently	Has the most frequently used APIs in memory	Vast and In-depth knowledge of the API	Has written libraries that sit on top of the API to simplify frequently used tasks and to fill in gaps in the API	E.g. of API can be Java library, .net framework or the custom API for the application

Thanks to John Haugeland for a reformatting of it that works much more nicely on the web.
