            <description>These pages are designed to help you pass the Sun Certified Java Programmers Exam.

It doesn&apos;t try to make you a good programmer, or even a good Java programmer, it just tries to get you through the exam by concentrating narrowly on the objectives.The parent site http://www.jchq.net/ is a larger resource, and includes demo applets, an FAQ, ock exam, and a link to certification books.</description>
