You mean "know" in that sentence (assuming English). You don't seem to know
tenses, let alone spelling.
It is one indicator of their education, most certainly.
More important than qualifications, I would say.
If they can't spell, how the hell do programmers write code which requires
exemplary spelling, bar nothing, for instance? If I was an employer (which
fortunately I'm not) I would reject outright your application. Are you
claiming you write exemplary grammar in code (thereby avoiding error messages)
and not in posts or other verbal intercourse? How therefore, can we be assured
you know what an integer means?

You have. Never mind, I realise it's only one indicator. Just try to do better
is all I ask.

Well, that's a very good reason. I salute you. I never heard of someone having
"TWO MOTHER LANGUAGES", which I imagine would require two mothers...:-)
I've heard of confusion over fathers, but never mothers :-))))))

It's possible (though I don't know) that Brendan was just speculating that you
needed a further understanding of integers. Otherwise you would not have
needed to ask the question.
It was reasonably obvious (as I already intimated) that you were not a
professional programmer like Brendon.
I couldn't care less who Brendan is. I just know that he's "cosher" and
genuinely tries to help. Maybe he's wrong sometimes for all I know. That's all
I can say with regard to the level of this thread, is that I don't like
arguing with Brendan's knowledge.
Your post ("correction") wasn't really that bad, if we assume English isn't
your Mother Tongue, and I myself tend to be abrupt and not "waste words".
