    As the title suggests, just trying to gauge if this type of exercise is something that many pro's hold stock in.

    I was in support and looking for a development role and I used them when I couldnt think of anything to code up. Good to keep your skills up and thinking about programming.

    They're quite a good idea for when you change want you're doing - like for example if I've been doing mostly database work for a while and then know I'm going to be doing some UI work next week a couple of appropriate kata to get the brain in the right mode is a good idea.

    Yeah that's the one I was looking at too. Some of them are right noodle scratchers though!
