Re: Do you use BITOF?

Never have had to go the way of the "Bit Twiddler". I took the ILE RPG test 
this past week also, and I don't remember any questions on this. They must 
pull them from a pool of questions. 

But you should have seen the administrator test. While most questions were 
reasonable, there was one that asked how to handle a program in a MSGW 
state, and one of the options was to place the key in a certain positon, and 
IPL the system! <--- funny stuff.
