Java Language and Platform Fundamentals
Core concepts of the Java language, its object‑oriented nature, platform independence, robustness, and scalability.
Java Language and Platform Fundamentals
Java is a high‑level, object‑oriented language created by Sun Microsystems in 1995. Its design goals include portability, robustness, and scalability.
Key Features
- Object‑Oriented: Everything is an object, promoting modularity and reuse.
- Platform‑Independent: Source code compiles to bytecode that runs on any JVM.
- Robust: Automatic garbage collection, exception handling, and strong type checking reduce errors.
- Scalable: From small utilities to large enterprise systems.
Remember: The “write once, run anywhere” promise is fulfilled by the Java Virtual Machine.
