Hi All, Im really confused to choose a book between Head First Java or Thinking in java i have just started to learn java and i like to do certification can any one help me out please?
You are telling that you know a little java, so its better that you first go through Head First Java and then to Thinking in Java. I did the same way and it's working for me...
Bruce Eckel used to offer free downloads of his books on his web site - he may still. I'd check there and see if Thinking In Java is available there first. Then, if the style works for you, go ahead and buy it.
Personally, I prefer the HeadFirst books, but since everyone has a different learning style, it's really a decision you have to make for yourself.
There are only two hard things in computer science: cache invalidation, naming things, and off-by-one errors
Thanks all for your reply.But i heard that Thinking in java is very dry also if i learn only 1 book(Head first java) will i be able to do SCJP? Please help
