Potential error in table 14.4 at the page 793 of the chapter 14. The third row:

        Description                                                    |   File method           |  Files method
        ----------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------|------------------------
        "Retrieves absolute path of file/directory" |  getAbsolutePath() | toAbsolutePath()

should stay in the table 14.3 (Common File and Path operations) and not in the table 14.4 (Common File and Files operations).
Indeed, the metod toAbsolutePath() is a Path method, not a Files method.
