Janet Smith wrote:So my question is how to deal with things like this? Are there other sources I should be using in preparation for the test that might cover things like this? Possibly the Mala Gupta book? Or different online resources? I haven't downloaded the Enthuware tests yet because I don't want to tackle them until I'm more confident i.e. I don't want to waste them. I'm guessing a lot more coding would be a good idea. But its the fact that I don't know that these types of syntaxes exist in the first place, so how to know to use them in my own code is the question.

This question is more about the very weird identifiers (class name, variable name and parameter name) than about the for loop itself.
Janet Smith wrote:The rest of the question made sense and I was able to work it out. It was just when I saw the unusual loop I wasn't sure if it was valid. So I wasn't 100% sure whether my answer was correct or if it was going to have a problem during compilation or at runtime.
