[Squawk 8888]

Have you been recently called a geek, a dork, a NERD? Do you want to be a nerd, geek, or dork? Well, this test is for you! This highly advanced 'test' will determine once and for all how nerdy you are. Upon completion, you will be given a score (out of 100) as to just how nerdy you are, plus a niffty little graphic and link that you can share with your friends (if you have any) so they can see how they measure up!

Please note: Spelling errors are intentionel and are in play to sea if you pik up on them (i.e. the erors are their for a reason). So plaese, no more emails regurding speling. Thnx!

Of course, I am a Mac user.....

72

[Gingersnap]

I got an 84.

This is higher than I thought it would be but upon reflection, probably about right. The problem is that I work in a completely nerd-infested setting. When everyone around you laughs at math jokes and knows all the plot lines for Babylon 5, it's tough to see your own nerdiness.

Nerd King. Apply for a professorship at MIT now!!!.

Though BASIC and PASCAL are both "beginner" languages, I chose BASIC as not being a "real" programming language because of its "GOTO" statement. PASCAL enforces structured programming.

These are good for my ego.

Not a nerd at all. I knew it!

[LTCJ]

Nerdly, yes. But the testosterone pumping, chick-magnet kind of nerd.

[HuntsvilleTxVeteran]

4% scored higher,
0% scored the same, and
96% scored lower.

What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

All hail the monsterous nerd. You are by far the KING NERD GOD!!!

And I am 65 years old not a GEN X

Well, if you know all the "correct" answers then you must be nerdy! BTW did you say COBOL?

[Petronski]

I thought the correct answer was 'Assembly.' True, there is 'assembly language,' but the others are cross-platform programming languages actually used to code programs. Assembly code is different for every chip, and is not actually something one would (normally) use for programming. Does anyone still sit down and write in assembler?



Whatever one thinks about that answer, "Assembly" was definitely the one answer 'not like the others.'

Mostly because of my Chemistry B.S., I knew most of the chemistry questions.

[HuntsvilleTxVeteran]

Assembly is a machine language not a programming language.

I bet if there was a slide rule question your score would've been higher!

[Petronski]

What you said.

"I don't need to take a test to find out if I'm a nerd...GOSH!!"

[7thson]

Taking the next test down - how weird I am - the above is my score.
