How do I get a job as a superprogrammer?

I want to get one of the good programming jobs, and they require a lot more than the basics as far as API memorization and so on.





I know Java, I know C, C++, but I haven't up to this point made much of an effort to memorize APIs. How should I start?

A good programmer doesn't "memorize" APIs ... or languages ... or anything of that nature. Those things are intangible and change rapidly in a technology driven field.





Consider the changes in programming during the previous 10 or 15 years.





Concentrate on the important things ... understanding the principles of good programming ... keep up with changes in the field at the theoretical model-level and other education. If an API requires you to know more than you can rapidly get from a manual or quick computer-aided lookup ... then it's not an API worth using.
Reply:Look at www.topcoder.com. You can get excellent experience in algorithm development, design, debugging, and implementation. And it's all free. You might even make a dollar or two.





Don't memorize API calls. If you want to memorize anything, study the object models of the languages and tools that you are expert in.





I've been teaching programming for 15 years and I've never asked a student to 'memorize' anything.
