Women Are Better Coders Than Men. by femrd: 2:13pm On Feb 18, 2016 |
New research shows that code written by
female computer programmers is more likely to
be approved by their peers than code written
by men—but only if their gender is concealed.
After analyzing data from the popular open
source software website GitHub, researchers
concluded that women on the site "may be
more competent overall." According to The
Guardian, "the researchers looked at
approximately 3m pull requests submitted on
GitHub, and found that code written by women
was approved at a higher rate (78.6 percent)
than code written by men (74.6 percent)."
However, they noted, "bias against [female
coders] exists nonetheless." According to their
findings, code written by women is viewed
more favorably when the coder's gender is
kept secret.
