I've been looking for somewhere to submit errata - but haven't been able to find it! So hopefully we can submit our potential errata here for someone to have a look at and advise...

So this is what I found in the SCJP 6 study guide (do you agree?)

On page 590 - table 7-5 it states:

subMap(s, b*, e, b*) Returns a submap starting at key s and ending just before key s

surely this should be:

subMap(s, b*, e, b*) Returns a submap starting at key s and ending just before key e

I have another one from Chapter 2, Page 86-87:


Surely, line:10 is not legal either because we are accessing it from a static context.

EDIT: Blah .. my bad. This is super-legal.

You can submit your errata here.

Shashi did you try to compile that code?? The line is absolutely legal, you are accessing the size field from static context using an instance of the class which is absolutely legal.

Charl your error seems correct to me, it must be an error (although I didn't check it in my book)...
 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
