C# Fundamentals Exam Released!

Friday, May 12, 2006

Awesome! The Brainbench C# Fundamentals exam just went public! Why do I care? Well, because I was the technical editor for the exam! I'm rather excited because this was my first publicly shown work as a technical editor of anything.

I think exam takers will find the exam to be fair. It's not too terribly advanced, but it's not a beginners exam either. It should really test if you know what you're talking about. One thing that I will remind everyone of is that C# is a standardized language, not "some Microsoft language". So, this exam tests your knowledge of the official C# (ECMA-334) language, not your slang usages of it. Also, sadly, this exam is on the older C# 1.0, not 2.0, which is my favorite language.

Currently the exam is available for free at brainbench.com. The full link is below. Enjoy!

there was a bug in one of the questions (I saw it on 24, don't know if they shuffle the questions on every test) where the image was showing something, but the code was something else

the one where the code is
GetX() | GetY()
GetX() || GetY()

other than that is good

After the exam is finished it goes through an image generation process. The error had to have happened in that step. That said, I did forward your comment on through the appropriate channel. Thanks for the comment.
