How do I determine my level of programming (beginner, Junior/Intermediate, Senior/Advanced)

Someone asked me this question and I couldn't answer it perfectly. How can this be measured? Is it by number of projects done or number of years I have been learning a programming language?

It is your overall knowledge and experience. Average standards: Junior - good knowledge of core language, basic knowledge of frameworks and additional tools (Git, SVN, unit testing software, etc.), This is a starting point for earning money from programming. (excluding freelance where you often can meet programmers even below this level), Middle - excellent knowledge of core language, good knowledge of frameworks, experience at team working, Senior - excellent knowledge of language and main frameworks, good overall experience and competency at IT industry. This experience level is roughly equal to about 5-7 years of working as a programmer on various business or popular open-source projects..
