I'm wondering if the interviewer actually slip of tongue and said "relative" experience and one gives this exact answer, what would the interviewer think? Only some every good listeners would catch such exact meaning differences.

Had similar questions myself generally from HR, non-techie types. I would have though the employer question was related to Working for a company you often don't end up doing doing what you start. For instance I ended up as the Test department for one company when there a lack of testing, I joined as a Software engineer. So it might be that you have 10 years software development in a variety of languages, they want to know long you have coded in a particular language. All I can think!
Sorry was typing the reply before anyone else had replied got distracted and lost the plot!

Depends on whether your Total Experience is actually Relevant.
If your experience is all VB 6 in Console apps for the Metals Recycling Industry, and the new job is all C# / HTML5 for Websites in the House Rental market, then no - it's not relevant at all!

Sorry missed your reply but I meant what Griff said. Yeah I have been asked in an interview if I had 5 years experience of a variety of the MSP430 that had only been released for 2 years. The correct answer is not to tell them they are being stupid...could go on but.

Currently I'm working in Asp.net Webforms(2 Years) and MVC (6 months) my new job in MVC so What would be my Relevant Experience ? 6 Months?

I'd certainly focus on the MVC, but mention the Webforms.

Again sorry, got distracted but I agree with Griff, one thing to be careful of is saying you have done X for Y long, only say you have done X for Y amount of time if you have try not to over sell yourself despite what agents say!

One important skill in interviewing is how you answer questions. The question they asked for is a number, but when you answer you should not normally give a short direct answer, but instead give an explained answer. Here's what I mean - if they ask how much relevant experience you have, the direct answer is, "6 months". However, an answer that would put you in much better standing with the interviewer(s) would be something like, "I have been a developing for 2 years now - mostly Web Forms at first, but I've been doing MVC for the last 6 months."
Note: You don't want to completely turn a difficult question on it's head and answer something completely different like some people might say - that will only piss the interviewer off. But many times (especially in a technical interview) the interviewers aren't a lot better at interviewing candidates than the candidates are at interviewing, and you can help them out by providing more information than they technically asked for.

As I understand it total experience means how long you ever worked in one area. Like IT. Your relevant experience is on a smaller area. For instance how long do worked on Mobile Development.
The context is important.

We all know people who have been employed as a "programmer" for 15 years and can't code to save their live's.
Total experience: Duration with job title
Relevant experience: Duration actually spent doing something useful

The origin of Word 'Relative' is the same as 'Relativity' (Einstein). It means 'Related to...' or 'In relation with'. So our uncles, aunts and grandparents are related to us, so for extensión, the word 'Relatives' has the meaning of close familiars.
On the other hand, even now, the word has its first significance of 'Related to...' so the question they could made you, was if you had experience related to the matter of discussion.

They're trying to weed out the wannabes by asking you to filter your experience to just the parts that are related to what they'll be having you do for them. Its a bit narrow minded of them as experience gained in one arena may somewhat apply to their arena.
For example, OO design. It doesn't matter much which language you implement your designs in, but its hard for you to justify including experience in another language they don't use.
Then there's always the leaky abstractions that we use. For example, C# and the .NET library. Its built on top of Win32 API, and occasionally there's a little bit that leaks through. If you know Win32 API, it merely anachronistic. If you don't, its magic voodoo. Does that make Win32 API experience relevant to C# or not?
We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

Hi coders,
I am in a task of development an open source 3D Maze for scientific purposes.
Which one is better to make a 3D game and why?
edit:
additional info: i code in both of them, and might even consider learning c++ (to which i have a rudimentary undersstanding)
Being open source, the code should be open and readable
I've done a 3d maze previously with pygame, i was thinking of upgrading to something better because graphics look too "outdated" (link)
Another "feature" this must have is to execute easily. Like double clicking the jar, or in terminal "python program.py" ; not to require too much external libraries
Any of your opinions is very welcome , even funny ones
