Java Programming Language And His History

let us know about Java Programming Language, just as C Language is the oldest computer language in the world, similarly Java has its place in today's modern era, Java in many ways from C / C ++. Different, but if you have learned C / C ++ well, then you will not have much difficulty in learning Java, but you will be taught this tutorial in such a way that without knowing any computer language, you will be able to learn Java very easily. .

What is Java Language?

Java Language is a type of general-purpose computer Programming

Language, with it -2 Java is "platform-independent" language, that is,

 programs written in Java Language, we can run on any operating system (OS),

 "platform Let's understand "independent "in another way,

To run the C / C ++ program in the Windows Operating System, the code has to

 be compiled written for windows. Different compile will have to be done every

time for another OS. But we can compile the program written in Java once and

run it in any operating system or machine

Let us now understand the use of Java.

Java is a very important computer language of the modern era, most

of the applications of Android are written in Java, along with -2 large

servers like Gmail, Linkdin, Amazon are also written in Java,



The desktop application Eclipse is also written in Java.

History of java programming language

The Java language was designed for Interactive television, but it had become a very advanced technology for the digital cable television industry at that time. . Java team members (also called Green teams) started a project to develop a language that helps develop applications for digital devices such as Setup box, Television, Remote etc.

In June 1991, James Gosling, Patrick Naughton, and Mike Sheridan

started a project to create the Java language. The team of these

three engineers was named Green Team. First, Java was named

Greentalk by James Gosling and whose extension name was ".gt".

And then it was named Oak.

Oak is the name of a tree which was the national tree of many countries

 such as USA, France, Germany etc. In 1995, the name was changed from

 Oak to Java because Oak was already registered by an Oak technology.

Green Team was thinking of a name that is most unique and related to technology

 and at the same time is a little funny type in speaking. The team thought of many

 names like "Dynamic", "revolutionary", "Silk", "DNA", "Jolt" etc.

According to James Gosling the Java name was very unique which was one of the options with Silk. The name Java was preferred by all the members of the team

and best thing about JAVA  is  not have any full form. In 1995, the first version of JAVA was Released by Sun Micro Systems.
