Java, a high level programming language, developed after two other high level languages C and C++. Much of the character of it is innate from these two languages. The modalities in this have a derivative of Denis Richies C. The myriad object oriented concepts of programming, familiarly known as OOPs are largely influenced by the charismatic C++.
In fact, several discernible characteristics of it owe a plethora to its varying predecessors. Moreover, the subtlety in the preemptive creation of this is discernibly rooted and owe to a range of processes of holistic refinement and characteristic adaptation which have been instilling day in and out as the web development languages grew civilized to an extent for the decades of the year.
History
This was envisaged by Patrick Naughton, James Gosling, Ed Frank, Chris Warth and the veteran Mike Sheridan at the premises of Sun Microsystems, Inc. in the eventful year, 1991. Hard labor for a period of 18 months culminated in building up the first operational version. This particular language was at first termed as the grand ‘Oak’ but later renamed as ‘Java’ in the year 1995. Bill Joy, enigmatic Frank Yellin, Arthur van Hoff, Jonathan Payne and the veteran Tim Lindholm were key contributors who helped in the subtle ramifications and relevant maturing in lieu of their knowledge with respect to the original prototype.
Features of this incredible language
Object-oriented – Object-oriented programming (OOP) is at the core of it. In fact, each and every program is to indeed haute object oriented concepts.
Compiled and Interpreter – It has the feature of both compiled and interpreter. Programs written in this are first complied and then interpreted. Thus, it lessens the chance of any errors.
Platform Independent: This Language is Platform Independent, which means that a program written in this can be transfer very easily.
Others – Other features of it are it is robust and secure a distributed and familiar language. It uses multithreaded technique, which is very useful. The written codes are highly dynamic and extensible. Can be portable to byte codes which help to give high performances.
Versions
With the development of ages different versions of this language have also released. Some of the versions are JDK 1.1, JDK 1.0, J2SE 1.4,J2SE 1.3, J2SE 1.2, J2SE 5.0, SE 7 and SE 6. The SE 7is the most current and advanced version of it, which is available now.
Applications
It has a wide range of applications. It allows an individual to chat with people all over the world, view images in 3D, play online games, use different mobile applications, and calculation of loan and mortgage interest, and many more. Moreover, it is as well vital to the intranet relevance and supplementary e-business resolutions that are the basis of commercial computing.
