Hi friends I am going to write SCJA exam on monday, that thought making me nervous, actually i prepared McKenzie's both books SCJA study guide and SCJA questions guide, and did some mock exams on online, please tell me what else do i need to prepare to get good percentage in exam, thanks in advance.
Concentrate on the objectives, go over topics you struggle with. Compile a bit of code and run it - just some simple examples, but you need to know the basics with regards to syntax, so make sure you have your looping structures and conditional statements down.
If you have any questions before going in, post them, and I'll try to respond quickly!
Hi Mckenzie, thanks for response actually i was little bit confused with -classpath, -version, -d, -D, -d is used with javac where as -D is used with java right, -classpath & -version are used with both javac and java right.
Best thing to do is just open up a DOS prompt and compile and run a little HelloWorld.java program, and use those various options at the command line. Prove to yourself how each one works, and you won't forget it! I betcha that little exersice wouldn't take more than twenty minutes.
Hi friends sorry i did'nt made i got just 66% i think so because of lack of practice its my fault, McKenzie your both books are really excellent, its my fault i did not pratice well, wish me better luck next time.
Hi Madhumitha i bought McKenzie's those 2 books from USA, now i am in vaction in india.
please can one answer to my questions please friends need help.
thanks in advance,
madhuri.
Before answering any of these I have to ask: where did you get these questions? Since you just took the exam I want to make sure you aren't posting questions from the exam, which is against JavaRanch policy.
In the mean time, a quick Google search should reveal the answer to #2, and I believe interfaces are convered in Cameron's books, so if you look in there for interface method declaration you should be able to figure out your question about methods in interfaces.

When I die, I want people to look at me and say "Yeah, he might have been crazy, but that was one zarkin frood that knew where his towel was."
Always quote your question sources! And don't be afraid to start a new thread. You'll get answers much faster that way.
As for the code questions, just write some code! See what compiles and what does not. That's the best way to learn. Then, if something doesn't make sense, we'll help you out with the 'why'.
