Beliefs about programming

Methods

We designed a survey to assess whether people who know different programming languages feel differently about programming. The survey was administered first at an Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) conference and later distributed on social media. For more details about the methods, including how to work on this project or reproduce results, see the Methods document.
