Re: Study Sheet for TEST 268

Igor,

Thanks for your input.  Would you like to contribute to the document by 
improving 1 or 2 questions from the advanced RPG and/or ILE chapters?

Thanks,

Re: Study Sheet for TEST 268






I read your doc, it's OK as reminder. I think that your advanced RPG and 
ILE chapters are very poor (and there is no binding language as a way of 
srvpgm maintanance)
I was very close to pass 268. I took some assesment tests from one VERY 
BAD testing site which has no updated content and I can publish 
screenshoots on web if anybody is interested in it.

This is my expirience with VUE 268:
1. ILE prefix in the test name isn't just a decoration. Anyone who wants 
god score in 268 should read ILE Concepts (you can find it in info 
center). Almost all ILE related content are from that book. (modules, 
srvpgms, updateing srvpgms, code maintanance tricks, profiling, 
optimisation etc.)
2. 80%  RPG examples in test are written in FREE form (so I believe people 

who arn't used to it might have dificulty in reading it :) and there isn't 

much time)
3. problem solving is related to using %Equal, %Found, %Eof, %KDS with I/O 

operations
4. data handling: qualified data structures, date conversions, basing 
pointers

God luck to all participants!

Study Sheet for TEST 268






Good afternoon,

I was not able to find a study sheet on the internet for test 268(i5 
iSeries RPG ILE Programmer), so I put together my own using various 
Redbooks internet web pages(mostly midrange.com).  If someone has already 
done this and would like to share their copy, please send it to me at 
'frankkany at unipres dot com'.

I know I'm missing some things or I don't fully understand some topics so 
I would like to have the list view the study sheet and offer any 
suggestions.  If you would like to view the study sheet, go to 
http://www.fwkvideo.com/test268.doc.

Thanks,
