Population data in 2016? #77

Open zydecat opened 7 years ago

zydecat commented 7 years ago

I'm interested to find out the population numbers relevant to when the survey was active, ie how many users of Free Code Camp and Code Newbie was the survey sent to? This would be useful for getting a survey response % and in turn work out the P value (margin of error)

I am using this survey data for my Dissertation as part of a Master of Information Systems and Technology degree and the population data would be pretty useful. I can't find it in any of the links so far. (ping @QuincyLarson )

Cheers,

Mat

@zydecat sure - I can answer any questions you have about it. We published the raw findings here: https://www.freecodecamp.com/2016-new-coder-survey/

We also have the full dataset available here (a lot of people have already dug into to, so you may be able to quickly find some of those values there): https://www.kaggle.com/freecodecamp/2016-new-coder-survey-

Finally, I wrote about the survey here: https://medium.freecodecamp.com/we-asked-15-000-people-who-they-are-and-how-theyre-learning-to-code-4104e29b2781#.afcu43lno
