If you ever wondered about which country produces the best programmers, wonder no more.
A new report from California-based HackerRank, a service that administers tests to developers around the world, says it’s China.
Second place goes to Russia, and Poland takes bronze. Traditional programming powerhouses like the US and India came in at 28th and 31st, respectively.
HackerRank offers its community of programmers, apparently 1.5 million strong, with challenges to hone their skills. It examined data from these challenges from the last few years to come up with the rankings, scoring developers from different countries and finding national averages.
