MySQL Core Certification |
June 22, 2005
I took the MySQL Core Certification test. It wasn't nearly as easy as I thought it would have been. Especially since I've been using MySQL for such a long time. I ended up marking about 15 or so questions and coming back to them. In the end I passed with time to spare. This certification will look really nice next to my Zend Certified Engineer (PHP) certification.
W00t!

Book Recommendation:
Bioinformatics For Dummies is packed with valuable information that introduces you to the field of computational genomics. This book is an easy-to-follow guide that leads you step by step through every bioinformatics task that can be done over the Internet. It helps make sense of long equations, and provides hints for optimization of genetics applications that can otherwise slow down your computer. Some of the things you will learn when reading this book include how to work with DNA and protein sequences, conduct similarity searches, build multiple sequence alignments, edit and publish alignments, visualize proteins through 3-D structures, and construct phylogenetic trees. |
