Just start programming. Others will probably disagree, but I think "working towards the test" when starting off is pointless, and not much fun. Instead, work through something like Head First Java, then decide how to proceed once you've achieved some basic proficiency.

No, you won't -- you'll go out and buy the book. We don't condone piracy in any form here, and you'll find people are singularly unwilling to help you if they suspect you don't respect the intellectual property rights of others.

I believe that a real beginner should avoid IDEs and learn to use the command line.

Fixing syntax errors is vital to becoming a good developer.

An IDE *is* the deep end, because you're solving multiple problems at once. The "shallow" end is taking things one step at a time, understanding each as you go.
Leo Hassaine wrote:In my opinion, jumping into the deep end is trying to program without basic support offered by even a simple IDE such as code highlighting.

Unless the person who made the book available is the author, publisher or whoever holds the copyright (as was done for Bruce Eckel's Thinking in Java, 3rd edition), somebody who has the book must have copied it and put the stolen copy on the web.

I never tried Different things.......when i take any of the mock test i get surprised by each question.
