5.0 out of 5 stars Good reference for the IZ0-147 exam, October 4, 2003
By 
Robert Hendren (Hermitage, TN USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: OCP Developer PL/SQL Program Units Exam Guide (Paperback)
I used this book as one of my study guides for the new IZ0-147 "Oracle 9i: Program with PL/SQL" exam which I recently passed. This is an excellent book that covers many of the concepts found in the IZ0-147 exam.

It, of course, does not cover everything needed for the IZ0-147 exam. Some things to look up elsewhere include LOBs, side effects (sql stmts calling functions are covered well in the book), and the 'call' command used in a trigger.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great preparation for the 1Z0-101 OCP exam, May 7, 2002
By 
Gregor Theis (Meerbusch Deutschland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: OCP Developer PL/SQL Program Units Exam Guide (Paperback)
For me this book worked for the OCP exam (53/57 questions correct in 32 minutes). With this book it took me 1 week to prepare for this exam (weekday evenings and most of the weekend).

If you want to do the PL/SQL program units exam this book is definitely the book to go for. I did not find any errors in this book. In the test questions from ORACLE I found no questions that was not explained in the book in a very understandable form.

Beeing a not native speaker I can not really comment on the style of writing but I found it very readable.

This book mentions one very import thing about the exam: read the questions first and than read the source code. I found that sometimes you actually do not need the (lengthy) source code in order to answer the questions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very helpful, December 4, 2002
By 
Srini (Woodbridge, VA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: OCP Developer PL/SQL Program Units Exam Guide (Paperback)
I used this to pass the PL/SQL OCP. These books are not for learning SQL and PL/SQL, these books are to prepare for the exams. But this PL/SQL book has chapters that teach PL/SQL very well, and a lot of material to cover the language if you have not worked with it before. I like the sample questions at the end of every section and chapter, they helped me a lot. The longer practice exams in the back are very very good, and I found them to be a lot like the questions on the exam. I had trouble with the CD, but the book was very good. I recommend it to anyone taking the exam. Since this book is from Oracle, I think it is best choice for taking the Oracle exams.
