Course Description: This course rounds out your basic RPG coding skills. These skills, along with those you acquired by taking the first two courses in the RPG Programming series, are the foundation on which later courses in the series will build.
The course begins by identifying the type of information that can be provided on a header specification and showing you how to code an H-spec.
Next, the course shows how to use subroutines to modularize a program. You will see how to code a subroutine and how to call it from other routines. The course then considers built-in functions and the various operations they perform.
Arrays and tables are covered next. You will see how to define, initialize, modify, search, and sort a run-time array or table. The course ends by describing the date processing capabilities built into the RPG IV language.

Audience: This course is intended for programmers new to the RPG programming language. It can also be taken by RPG III programmers who want to learn RPG IV.
Prerequisites: This course assumes that you are familiar with computer programming concepts. In order to satisfy this prerequisite, you should have some programming experience with another programming language. The course also assumes that you have a working knowledge of basic OS/400 concepts and facilities. You can satisfy this prerequisite by successfully completing the courses in the following series:
· Using an iSeries System
In addition, the course assumes that you have a understanding of basic RPG programming concepts and RPG file processing capabilities. You can satisfy this prerequisite by successfully completing the first two course in this series:
· RPG Fundamentals
· RPG File Processing
Course Outline: The Header (Control) Specification Using Subroutines RPG Built-In Functions Using Arrays and Tables Working with Dates and Times
