<<Shortly after I left CMU in 1981 they started requiring that all engineering
and science majors pass a practical final exam in programming. They were
put in front of a terminal, given a specification, and allowed a few hours to
produce a working program. I don't know if that practice continues today.>>
This is still done today, and it is an excellent idea, but very few places
do this.
