It will take no time for you to be working in PHP, as you probably know.

I can't imagine the test is geared towards syntax of a specific language. You should just ask her about the test before you take it.

just for other's FYIs, it displayed some code in PHP and asked me what the function did/if there were problems/how i'd rewrite it.

then i had a round-robin question about DNS servers

had to write a function in PHP

had to declare a table in mySQL

asked me y such and such may slow down servers as a site gets more traffic

asked me to write a perl function





etc



i skipped most of the questions, but was told i was allowed to. i think it was just geared to get a general understanding if i could pick apart functions or if i was a moron.

for example one function had an internal function declaration with some variables like '$array' and then something that looked like it was appending a string but neglected the common theme of single quotes so i pointed that out as a possible cause of an error, then the function had passed in a variable called $array2 but within the internal function a variable was declared as "global $array2" which i said was a nono (but unsure cuz i dunno PHP)


we'll see how i did.
