It's the experience. It's bound to be.

I mean, I can't think of another reason that I generally finish up the assignments at work 40 minutes ahead of the rest of the class, that I can spot where the talk is going next and ask the right questions, that when someone's code wasn't working today and the tutor couldn't spot the problem after ten minutes I managed to find the bug in less than 2. It must be the ten years of practical coding experience, there's no other explanation for my amazingly fantastic rockingness.

Either that or I'm an angel, sent down from coding heaven to teach people how to program.

I may be letting this go to my head. I'm sure once I'm into the job proper it'll all be much harder.

Bound to be.

The experience cirtainly focuses an obviouse aptitude for these things. But I worked with coders that have been coding longer than I, but can't find bugs very well. coding and debugging are different things. Why do you finish first, desire, intrinsic desire to tackle the problem, thus thinking about the possible permutations, hence the knowing where things are going before others. It's the way you think, and In my opinion, it is more analitical than others, fuled by this unhealthy quest for knowlerdge you seem to have ( it's a good quest realy, I'm just jealouse ).
