PraveenTo make a steam locomotive go one needs fire, water and steam. You can struggle by for a bit with a shortage of one of these.
And I think a better way to think about your question is:
IMHO To pass 1z0-047 you need knowledge practice and experience.
- And you can something squeeze through if one of these is a little weaker and the others very strong.
From the book you can gain knowledge (as indeed can the oracle documentation). IMHO If you gain it all, the knowledge from the book is sufficient for passing the exam.
You can also use the book to get a little test practice. (And perhaps a little practice of the SQL itself).
The book however doesn't give experience.
- Having said all this I feel starting from zero trying to pass 1z0-047 is likely to result in failure.
Better in my opinion is study for 1z0-051 first. It's a lot gentler on the brain. And take that. It's a lot cheaper if you fail it and need to retake. And the exam is easier (though you might have to learn more detail in places, which perhaps isn't a bad. thing).
........... But if after studying for 1z0-051 you elect to skip it and go for 1z0-047 direct that is your choice. 1z0-051 is a subset of 1z0-047 HOWEVER there will be more detail on some 1z0-051 topics on the 1z0-051 exam.

  • Books for 1Z0-047 and 1Z0-144

    Hello all,
    I'm planning to study for "Oracle PL/SQL Developer Certified Associate" certification. I was planning to prepare for 1Z0-047 and 1Z0-144 as both of those exams are validated against Oracle Database 11g.
    I was wondering if any of guys here can help me out with the couple of questions that I have.
    1. Which one would you recommend among the two of the below exams?
    1Z0-047 (Oracle Database SQL Expert)
    or
    1Z0-051 (Oracle Database 11g: SQL Fundamentals I)
    2. What books should I refer for 1Z0-047 and 1Z0-144? I read a lot of threads about this topic. But, I haven't found a proper answer yet, which is why I'm posting this question again.
    For 1Z0-047, I saw people recommending the following:
    OCA Oracle Database SQL Expert Exam Guide: Exam 1Z0-047 (Osborne Oracle Press Series) by Steve O'Hearn
    OCA Oracle Database 11g SQL Fundamentals I Exam Guide: Exam 1Z0-051 (Osborne ORACLE Press Series) by John Watson and Roopesh Ramklass
    For 1Z0-144, I saw people recommending the following:
    Oracle PL/SQL Programming: Covers Versions Through Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (Animal Guide) by Steven Feuerstein and Bill Pribyl
    OCP Developer PL/SQL Program Units Exam Guide by Steve O'Hearn
    I kindly request you guys to help me out as I don't have much idea about these books. It would be really great if someone who has passed the exams or read these books throw some light on these.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thisi usually a prompt for braindump providers to spam a couple of messages on a thread like this ... and I have to waste time reporting them and some else removing them, as I have had to to this afternoon.

    Ucertify does have a 1z0-144 practice test ... quality may or may not be poor. Ucertify currently remains certifcation safe AFAIK.
    http://www.ucertify.com/exams/Oracle/1Z0-144.html
    ( I feel like I am advertising Ucertify ... which I dont want to be. I feel if I dont do this people will end up with braindump providers). Some may even find a poor quality practice test more harm than good, time may have been better sent learning from the online manuals and practicing what is there.

  • Whether it is good to take training for 1z0-047 exams or self studies?

    What is the good option among bottom two for 1z0-047:
    Take training from Oracle partner training institute which cost me approximately 9000 rupees i.e apprx $195.
    Or
    Self study is better one???
    If self study is better then from which material I can start preparing???
    Please guide me..........

    Please guide me..........I think its unwise to think about going straight for '1z0-047' in one go.
    IMHO Really to get to 1z0-047 you need to get some SQL practice first ... and from other than a classroom. To get to 1z0-047 in one hop simply isn't reasonable for most people.
    The praice quoted there seems cheap for a OEAC .... and i would be beware exactly what 'Oracle partner training institute' means .... ( I think you are proably talking about an offering from the workforce program). The are unauthorised trainers out there ... which is a problem for people aiming for a certification needing validiated authorised training (eg DBA OCP) .... but not so important for PL/SQL OCP's who don;t.

  • Where can I buy an authentic prartice test material for 1z0-047?

    Hello friends,
    I am planning to take the 1Z0-047 (Oracle Database SQL Expert) test by next month. I would like to buy the practice test kit that would be available in India to practice for the exam.
    I have searched on the internet for the test kits, and am confused about their authenticity.
    Please help.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Murli

    The officially recognised Kaplan IT practice tests are here on the oracle certification website
    ( http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=208 )
    Trascender is essentially a superset of SelftestSoftware. Beware of fake immitations.
    About the only other independent supplier is Ucertify, pretty well everthing else google provides will be braindump. Transcender/Selftestsoftware standard will typically be higher than Ucertify IMHO.
    Steve O'Hearns book also has practice exams on the cdrom.
    - I always caution against people studying for 1z0-047 without being above 1z0-051 standard first. 1z0-047 is really there for experienced SQL people.

  • Need help for flash builder

    i need help for flash builder 4 and papervison 3d. I need to create a slider with it ranges of value from 10 to 50 to adjust the camera values for the camera.fov and also need to create it for the yaw of the object from 0 to 360. I try to look for any slider event and classes in this program but cant find any, btw, i need to use the AS only project file.
    here is my codes:
    can you please tell me how i should modify the codes?
    package
        import flash.display.BitmapData;
        import flash.display.Sprite;
        import flash.events.Event;
        import org.papervision3d.materials.BitmapFileMaterial;
        import org.papervision3d.materials.BitmapMaterial;
        import org.papervision3d.objects.primitives.Sphere;
        import org.papervision3d.view.BasicView;
        [SWF (width="800", height="600", backgroundColor="0x000000",frameRate="30")]
        public class EarthBitmap extends BasicView
            private var sphere:Sphere;
            public function EarthBitmap()
                super(800 , 600);
                var earthmaterial:BitmapFileMaterial = new BitmapFileMaterial("../assets/Earth.jpg");
                sphere = new Sphere(earthmaterial,100,20,18);
                camera.fov = 25;
                scene.addChild(sphere);
                addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,rotateSphere);
            public function rotateSphere(evt:Event):void
                sphere.yaw(0.2);
                singleRender();

    Turn the click handler into a full on separate function. Then store all the views in an array and use Math.rand() to randomly choose one.
    Something like this:
    <fx:Script>
         <![CDATA[
              var questionsArray:Array = {question2,question3,question5,questionRed,questionGeography};
              function buttonClickHandler(event:MouseEvent){
                   var randomProblem:int = Math.floor(Math.random()*(questionsArray.length));     //generates a random integer between 0 and the total number of questions in the array (arrays are 0-based)
                   navigator.pushView(questionsArray[randomProblem]);
         ]]>
    </fx:Script>
    <s:Button id="randomProblemButton" label="Next Problem" click="buttonClickHandler(event)" />
    Haven't tested that, but something along that line should work

  • Need help for importing oracle 10G dump into 9i database

    hi, Someone help me to import oracle 10G dump into 9i database. I'm studying oracle . Im using oracle 10G developer suite(downloaded from oracle) and oracle 9i database. I saw some threads tat we can't import the higher version dumps into lower version database. But i'm badly need help for importing the dump...
    or
    someone please tell me the site to download oracle 9i Developer suite as i can't find it in oracle site...

    I didnt testet it to import a dump out of a 10g instance into a 9i instance if this export has been done using a 10g environment.
    But it is possible to perform an export with a 9i environment against a 10g instance.
    I am just testing this with a 9.2.0.8 environment against a 10.2.0.4.0 instance and is working so far.
    The system raises an EXP-00008 / ORA-37002 error after exporting the data segments (exporting post-schema procedural objects and actions).
    I am not sure if it is possible to perform an import to a 9i instance with this dump but maybe worth to give it a try.
    It should potentially be possible to export at least 9i compatible objects/segments with this approach.
    However, I have my doubts if this stunt is supported by oracle ...

    That's simple.
    All you have to do is:
    From MENU goto SETTINGS, When there scroll down and select 'Restore Factory Setting'.
    There are two options in there:
    "Restore Settings only"
    and
    "Restore all"
    Select "Restore All"
    When done the phone will delete every thing on the Phone memory(C:\)(contacts,picture,messages etc)
    and also restore phone to its original settings and will restart.
    This proceedure is mostly common on S40 phone.
    Hope this explain and solve the problem.

    If the change between the 2 types of data has to happen dynamically during run time them
    1. Use 2 dataproviders
         a. Current
         b. Historic
    2. Merge the 2 dimensions
    3. Use Webi variable to switch between the measure of the current and historic universe
    Ex  if [year] < 2010 then historic.[expense] else current.[expense]

    In table J_1IEXCHDR status = "P" and J1I5 does not update for document of 102 movement because reversal document of MIGO, i.e. material document with 102 movement type does not have excise tab. MBSM-Cancelled Material Documents, does not show any of the material documents.
    Want to reverse the cenvat credit, please help.

    Hi,
    If I select Cancellation in MIGO then there is only Material Document option.
    In MIGO Purchase Order option shows for Goods Receipt, Goods Issue and Subsequet Adj.
    In this case I have been selected Goods Receipt option followed by purchase order number by which original goods receipt MIGO was created, selected 102 movement type and from line item respective MIGO document. The reversal document created successfully where as original MIGO document does not show in cancelled document list. When post option selected from J1IEX and entered vendor excise number then message appeared as No Part I exists for availing credit in excise invoice xxxxx.

  • Need help for finding objects impacted by size change for an infoobject

    hi all,
    need help for finding objects impacted by size change
    for xxx infoobject, due to some requirements, the size to be changed from
    char(4) to char(10), in the source database tables as well as adjustment
    to be done in BI side.
    this infoobject xxx is nav attribute of YYY as well as for WWW

    now that i have to prepare an impact analysis doc for BI side.
    pls help me with what all could be impacted and what to be done as a
    solution to implement the size change.
    FYI:

    Hi Swetha,
    You will have to manually make the table adjustments in all the systems using SE14 trans since the changes done using SE14 cannot be collected in any TR.
    How to adjust tables :
    Enter the table name in SE14. For ex for any Z master data(Say ZABCD), master data table name would be /BIC/PZABCD, text table would be /BIC/TZABCD. Similarly any DSO(say ZXYZ) table name would be /BIC/AZXYZ00 etc.
    Just enter the table name in SE14 trans --> Edit --> Select the radio button "Save Data" --> Click on Activate & adjust database table.
    NOTE : Be very careful in using SE14 trans since there is possibility that the backend table could be deleted.
    How to collect the changes in TR:
    You can collect only the changes made to the IO --> When you activate, it will ask you for the TR --> Enter the correct package name & create a new TR. If it doesn't prompt you for TR, just goto Extras --> Write transport request from the IO properties Menu screen. Once these IO changes are moved successfully, then the above proceduce can be followed using SE14 trans.
    Hope it helps!

    You haven't posted ANY 'java program' for us to help with.
    The forum is NOT a coding service. It is to help you with YOUR code.
    Post the code you have written and SHOW us (don't just tell us) how you compile it and execute it and the results you get. Then we can help you with any problems you are are having.
    If you need help understanding just what the program should be doing you need to ask your instructor to clarify the assignment.
