Hi,

I was wondering. Does your book assume someone is a programmer, or could the book be understood by complete programming newbies?

Thanks.

SCJP being a certificate for people aiming to become a Java Programmer, I'd assume that anybody should be able to pick up the book and start studying from it, without any particular background.

We provide a comprehensive primer for SCJP.
Depending on your programming background, you might find the threshold higher or lower to get into the material.
We have tried hard to explain the concepts from the ground up, hoping to lower the threshold for most readers.
