Quick Check Link

As you advance your training you need to check to make sure you are ready to move on. You just might want to make the next link connection to take a Pre-test and see if you are ready for our subject. If it goes well you might take the Post-test to see if you are advanced. While you are here you could also look for any solution demonstrations.

Raptor Problem Demonstration #1

You might want a little help on your first Raptor project. I will recomend Raptor Training from Robert Bowers as a great place to start. Bowers has a series of videos on YouTube that are short and to the point. They seam to go well with any flowcharting text book. If you have not seen the first one you might want to watch it first. Then try the very easy Sales Tax program which I will guide you through.

Objectives: This is a project I highlight in my C++ class but will work very well here as an intro to Raptor. We will not be entering any C++ code. We will only look at the planning process which involves flowcharting. Start by watching the 2 Videos produced by the YouTube Host Randall Bowers.
