Errors and Omissions
I was looking in the Java Language Specification (which is "the definitive technical reference for the Java programming language.") to look up the details of instantiating "anonymous inner classes". "new" is the Java keyword that one would use to instantiate a class. I was rather dismayed when I found that "new" doesn't appear in their index but "Newton, Sir Isaac" does appear in their index. Of course, "new" appears all over the text, but "Newton, Sir Isaac" actually doesn't.
