    Answer questions on comp.lang.c++.

    Give or get? There are no decent or widely accepted certifications for C++ that I know of, but you're welcome to try your hand at creating one.

    hi,
    Thanks for ur response.. got introduced to another gud group!

    I want to "get" some certification on C++. The only reason behind this is, I want 2 test my programming skills. I can solve programming doubts but writing a good optimized code is much different.
    So if there were some test/ certification where I can evaluate my coding skills that would be really helpful.

    Best Regards,
    Shal

    Like I said, there aren't any decent or widely accepted certifications that I know of, and the ones that are out there aren't cheap. You would likely be wasting your money.

    There is none. And don't let those certification centers tell yoiu otherwise. They lie. Pay special attention to how Stroustrup worded the subject. Words like "authority" do have a strong meaning when it comes to certifications.

    For simple quizzes do a search for "test your c++ knowledge" on google. For anything more advanced, do as Prelude suggested. Answer questions on comp.lang.c++. Those fine boys and girls will be thrilled to hammer you if you do a bad job at it. You'll then know

    Oh! And code. Code a lot. That's the best way to test your skills. Programming is about problem solving.
