Sure - would you like to see this really neat little utility I devloped last weekend - I call is "perl". :-)
All it would show is that the person may be a good programmer, or a good thief. Not to mention the fact that programming is a relatively trivial part of the development process. I spend about 70% of my time designing, 15% programming, and the rest documenting. Less than 5% debugging, if I've done my job right.
