This is an interesting, and sort of weird, site I found that has mock exams and lots of other stuff: http://www.javaranch.com/certification.jsp

the best option is 1st \nLearn Programming 1st then do testing as you get to know after programming experience where generally programmers create mistakes and which leads to a rippling error effects in the whole application . This will train you to write better test cases and be more efficient.

Depending on which platform you need your software to run, check out HotScripts for various quiz engines they have. A certification test would be a multiple-choice or fill-in-the-blank quiz.

To get your feet quickly, start with tutorials.  A lot avilable in net. For good one look at the following link :\n\nhttp://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/java/index.html\n\nI personally feel the following books are good to start with :\nJava Complete Reference / Core java\nWhen you by the book, dont forget to get the latest edition that address Java 1.5.\n\nA comparison on java books is available at :\n\nhttp://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-05-2001/jw-0518-introbooks.html?

Easy is a rather relative term. I found the concepts in Java very easy to learn, but I understand OO design and had a firm understanding of C++ before I started.\n\nThat said, there are a few ways to get started that I can think of:\n\n1. A good book, as someone mentioned already. I don't know of any personally. Perhaps someone can suggest one.\n\n2. A tutorial or two :)  ... A good resource for Java tutorials (well, lots of programming tutorials actually) is ... http://www.programmertutorials.com/tutorials/7/1\n\n3. It always helps to have a mentor with any programming language. When you get tired of banging your head on the desk because you can't understand the difference between an object and a class, they can help you...\n\nHope that helps some.

The book itself is OK. It teaches you the basics. It is very light on practical applications. This area can be a real problem for many programmers, so make sure you work on some real life programming challenges to put your lessons to practice.

Best Programming Language - that is easy to learn !?!?  and most company needs !?!?\n\nIf we had one that fits the above description, lots of programmers will jump in and it wouldn't be hot anymore.\n\nI am ignoring all the frameworks, tools etc\n\nC and C++ to my knowledge is the best programming language and again it is not easy (subjective) to learn and not very hot.\n\nJava on the other hand is comparatively easier than C - very hot in the market and again to master it - you need to learn lot of frameworks and technologies\n\nPython  is very interesting - simpler than Java and C (similar to C though) and extremely powerfull. Companies (even Google) are adopting this language rapidly, will become hot in few years.

Maybe you need to download Java. It's free. Go to:\nhttp://www.java.com/en/

You can get a tutorial from the official java web site\nhttp://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/\n\nYou can also download the tutorial and do it at home\nhttp://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/information/download.html

Did you try "Java for Dummies" to start?  At Dummies.com it's $24.99.  I'm sure with a little patience you could find it at half.com for a fraction of the price.  Once you've mastered all there is to know there, you can move on.  Good luck!!

What about it? \n\nIt has syntax similer to C++ without pointers. \n\nIt can do just about anything and technically runs on any platform. In reality there are subtle differences between platforms but portability is not difficult. \n\nExcellent web programing support. \n\nYou have easy to use functionality of a wider variety than any other language around. That is there are prebuilt modules for just about everything you can think of. \n\nIt is not an easy language to learn. Nor can anybody know all of Java. You have to specialize. \n\nJava programmers are probably the best paid programmers around. \n\nIt's free and well supported.\n\nWhat else did you want to know?

get some good frontpage tutorials and try building page by page\n\nhere are some good tutorials\n\nhttp://www.actden.com/fp2000/java/\nhttp://www.actden.com/fp2000/java/\nhttp://www.frontpage2002.com/frontpage_2003_tutorial_guide.htm\nhttp://www.webworksite.com/fptutorials.shtml\n\nanyway since this is assignment you will need to explain the code a bit so you have to learn a bit of html atleast\n\nhere are a few html tutorial links\n\nhttp://www.davesite.com/webstation/html/\nhttp://www.w3schools.com/\nhttp://www.mcli.dist.maricopa.edu/tut/\n\n\nthis link can help a lot in completing your assignment\n\nhttp://marilee.us/webpages.html

Java programming has couple of pluses....\n+ it is Object oriented\n+ it is platform independent \n+ it is part of open source community development\n+ it is write once , run anywhere kind of programming\n\nyou will write a source *.java file compile with the JDK, \nthat will produce a bytecoded classfile\nthese byte coded class file run on different machines JVM without any modifications to suit environment.\n\n\n\njavac *.java  and run using \njava  file(class)\n\n\n\nFor a start you need couple of things..\nGet a Headfirst series Java book \nget the JDK  (java development kit) here\nhttp://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download-netbeans-50.html

frankly speaking most languages are related ie the syntax is similar so you if you can learn to code in one you can easily grasp the syntax in others and the logic remains pretty much the same..my suggestion would be you learn to program in a high level language like C++ or java..from there you can graduate to others..\n\nyou can follow this flow\n\nC -> C++ --> java -->javascript --> python --> perl...\n\ni cant comment about .net and apache since i have never used them\n\nregarding Visual basic its mostly a graphical interface with some basic programming so my suggestion is get a good book on visual basic or a good website and start fooling about with it..you can easily learn it in a weeks time\n\nThese two websites are good to learn VB\n\nhttp://www.vbtutor.net/vbtutor.html\nhttp://cuinl.tripod.com/tutorials.htm\n\nDreamweaver is a  WYSIWYG editor so even if you dont know HTML you can design nice looking websites restricted only by our  creativity..anyway learning HTML is easy...\n\nthis website is good for HTML http://www.davesite.com/webstation/html/
