) .... is wrong???

i tried it on IDE and worked fine

Sorry i some how got confused and did not realize that amount != Amount, and the answer was not clear at first. thank you i will mark this question solved

[Campbell Ritchie]

Please provide full details of the book including authors, and the whole question because many of us don't have the book and can't therefore verify the answer.

[Mahmoud Elkeshky]

@Campbell  Ritchie Thank you i found that i was confused.

is question marked solved now??
it is my first time to post here

[Jeanne Boyarsky]

It's nice when problems solve themselves

[Mahmoud Elkeshky]

@Jeanne Boyarsky Yes, and hope these silly mistakes that i commit now would not be repeated during exam ... it's a matter or practicing

[Jeanne Boyarsky]

Agreed! By the way, our questions are designed so that you can practice them multiple times and start to spot the errors. That's why some are similar. Really trains you to look for the concepts.

[Mahmoud Elkeshky]

Yes, and i begin to follow your recommendations for the study, i kept my score for the review questions in a note in order to re-evaluate my performance once i return back to them.

[Mahmoud Elkeshky]

I found a type error:

chapter 3:
Header: "Types of operators"
Loc: 4243 on kindle version

int cookies = 4;
double reward = 3 + 2 * --cookies;
System.out.print("Zoo animal receives: "+reward+" reward points");

Error Text:

The final values of cookies and reward would be 9.0 and 3, respectively

Should be:

The final values of cookies and reward would be 3 and 9.0, respectively

Have you any idea whether there is any difference in the printed version, or PDF? Please look here and scroll down. I think you are correct that you have found a “new” misprint.

I have no clue if they are written from same source ("Material submitted by authors") but i think they are the same.
for the link you just shared https://www.selikoff.net/ocp11-1/ i already red it carefully before buying the ebook, and also i keep revisiting it for any reported typos and/or errata. Thank you my friend

[Jeanne Boyarsky]

Confirmed and you are now in the errata as a reporter! Thanks for letting us know.

The printed and Kndle editions are supposed to come from the same source. And all errors "that belong to the authors" are in both. Every once in a while there is a rendering error that only hits the Kindle.
