Abstract : One of the issue encountered in computer programming courses are the high failure rate among the students. This is a serious concern for educators and the students. So there is a dire need to diagnose the factors affecting the same. Hence the objective of this study is to analyse the programming skill of the students by considering the factors like educational background, program debugging skill etc. Methods like correlation and regression are adopted for analysing these factors. It is observed that the debugging skill of the student has an upper hand in determining the programming skill compared to the marks secured in the examinations.
