Collab. VS Solo programming

Title says all. Which is better? Solo programming or group programming?

It ould be nice to have a reason too.  smile

I would say solo programming, though it's hard, you can keep everything together. You can be online a the same time (since there's only... uh you) it's generally easier to do.

So.

Results
SOLO
8

GROUP
1

DEPENDS
2

Uhhm. It seems like so.o is winning.
Any chance you;re gonna do te scratch olympics (which is basically a collab.)

Uh... Neither.

Collabs will be better with 2.0.

Add a half to each.  smile

Sorry, halfs would just mess it up. I'll add one to each to make it even.

Re: Collab. VS Solo programming

It depends, on Scratch collabs get nothing done 99% of the time so going solo gets better results. With more experienced and dedicated programmers collaborative projects turn out well usually. Most larger programs were made by teams (like the scratch program).

Re: Collab. VS Solo programming

I've never really been in a collab, so I wouldn't know.  smile  I like working solo because if I'm busy and can't work on it, I don't have to worry about letting down my teammates. I do think it would be fun to work together though, because different people have different skills.
