Hello,

I am glad to be back. Feel free to submit questions, I'm still on vacation so I have a lot of time to do this. ;)

Cheers!

Well, if you are in Scotland, the whole country has been turned onto Screensaver for the whole week

Hi Iuliana, I look forward to reading your new book!

[Matheus Mendes]

The content of the book will also cover certification topics or is it too superficial for the exam ?

btw congratulations for the book and for the initiative

Hello Matheus Mendes,

I noticed you did not create a new thread.

This book is aimed for people learning Java, actually programming overall for the first time in their life. It might intersect with topics for the certification exam, but I doubt it is enough to prepare for the exam.

I am planning on taking the certification exam myself this summer, so I guess I'll find out soon how much I've managed to intersect with the certification study guide by mistake. ;)

Cheers!
