Oracle Certified Associate Java SE 8 Programmer I: Exam 1Z0-808 [DSP2017 #05]

 

Hello and sorry for absence during last weeks. This time was very busy because I had to prepare myself for OCA certification.
In this post I want to write few word about:
  • what I've done
  • how it looks
  • what I will improve next time
 I've read one book from beginning to the end. It was
 I think that it is good book for gain knowledge about base java. There is a lot of examples, very detail description. Form point of exam just reading and making the tests is not enough. The test inside this book are not so easy but they don't cover real exam.
Next books which were only source of mock tests:
The mocks in the first position are very easy and so short. In real exam the examples of code was so longer and requires more concentration.
During the preparation I was receiving score between 65-85% on mock and chapter tests.

Next time (maybe OCP) I will spend more time on coding and practice part. Next I want to begin earlier with mocking test and the source of this will be: http://enthuware.com/

I've prepared about 1.5 month and my score is 72%. It is not so good but I know what I should improve and I'm very glad that I finally took this exam. (I've planed it from 2 or 3 years)

How to start with Android development [DSP2017 #07]

First of all I need to install tools: Android Studio (I use Intellij with Android extension). Android SDK - I used the sdkmanager but during Android Studio installation sdk should be installed. If you have 64 bits system you need to check: Required libraries for 64-bit machines . If you have installed all above tools you should be able to create simple Android project and run it on your phone. Yes, like always I met few problems with run the application on my phone. #1 The adb can not find my device. Solution : turn phone as MTP mode. 2# Error:Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugResources'. > com.android.ide.common.process.ProcessException:...

Rest API desing [DSP2017 #02]

Rest API best practices During creating an http api we should remember about few rules. As a API designers we must know how to name our endpoints. When we have a library which contains users and their books. As a collection we should use a plural form of verb like books and users. Below we can find examples of endpoints for certain activity and strict HTTP methods Add new book: /users/{userId}/books/{bookId} POST Get book: /users/{userId}/books/{bookId} GET Edit book: /users/{userId}/books/{bookId} PUT Remove book: /users/{userId}/books/{bookId} DELETE   Status codes 200 OK 201 Created 202 Accepted - request has been accepted but not completed. 204 Non content - the request is correct but no content in response body. 400 Bad request 401 Unauthorized 403 Forbidden 404 Not found 408 Request time out 409 - Conflict - duplicate data or invalid data state would occur. 500 Internal server error 501 Not implemented 503 Service unavailable    I th...
