Hi Cay Horstmann,
I intend to start preparing for the OCP8 exam in March.
As of yet, I'm unaware of the changes of Java 9 and I would like to know what's new.
Should I read your book before the OCP8 exam, or should I read it only after the exam to avoid getting confused?

There aren't that many new features in Java 9 outside modules. Hopefully the general enlightenment will outshine any confusion with new features :-)

I had a look at the sample questions on https://blogs.oracle.com/certification/test-your-java-knowledge-with-free-sample-questions, and none of them would be affected by Java 9.

Good luck with the exam!

Cay
