About Question enthuware.ocpjp.v8.2.1591 :

Why do we need to know how to format a java.util.Date for the exam? It's deprecated. And even worse, why is there a new way to do it?

I know the exam topics for 1z0-813 says:
"Format dates, numbers, and currency values for localization with the NumberFormat and DateFormat classes, including number and date format patterns"

But isn't that a mistake? Don't we need to learn DateTimeFormatter and the different ways to format/parse dates in the new date/time api instead?

We haven't seen anyone getting questions on the new formatting API. Only on the NumberFormat and DateFormat classes.

HTH,
