4. What is your level of comfort working with these aspects of C programming?

- Eh.. Funny options. I want to select very high on both.»
- The selection seems flawed for this question. But regarding C programming i have programmed embedded systems in C in a professional or hobby setting for about 5 years.»
- Bit lack of practice. I can get things done once I am into it»

- I have experiences in both pointers and data structures.»
- !!!!!!!Unable to answer using dots!!!!!! Both High.»
- The dots seems to be grouped in the wrong direction. It should be Very low on both»
- Pointers and data structures: medium Toggle function in this question seems to be very strange, even stranger if it was intended this way. »
- Pointers: High, Data Structures: High»
- Medium for Data Structures as well»
- Never programmed with C (couldn"t choose very low for both for some reason)»
- I also want to choose medium level in data structures, but I could not choose.»
- This poll didn"t work the way I thought it would. Actual answers: Pointers: Medium Data structures: Medium»
