Well it got posponed

Probably a good thing as I'll have more time to cover some of the less well known parts of delphi then

Sorry to see you didn't make it.

What kind of questions did you get?

**WILL** · 25-10-2004, 11:36 PM

:? Too bad... It's ok though, you'll do a lot better on the next one.

You are going to try again I assume?

How much does it cost to take the exam?

I got asked about 5 questions on Packages.

A lot of questions around Object pascal.

e.g.
Which of these describe a Real?
1. a 64bit numnber
2. a 48 bit number
3. just like a double
4. just like a float

Basically I passed the IDE and XML tests only.

I will be trying again - probably sometime in January. It costs me R2280 (~US$300) but on the web site I saw it said US$1000 so I'm not quite sure what it would cost elsewhere.
