Object Oriented Programming
Object Oriented Programming
Java programming language was originally developed by Sun Microsystems which was initiated
by James Gosling and released in 1995 as core component of Sun Microsystems' Java platform
(Java 1.0 [J2SE]).

Java is:
Object Oriented: In Java, everything is an Object. Java can be easily extended since it is based
on the Object model.
Platform Independent: Unlike many other programming languages including C and C++, when
Java is compiled, it is not compiled into platform specific machine, rather into platform
independent byte code. This byte code is distributed over the web and interpreted by the Virtual
Machine (JVM) on whichever platform it is being run on.
Simple: Java is designed to be easy to learn. If you understand the basic concept of OOP Java,
it would be easy to master.
Secure: With Java's secure feature it enables to develop virus-free, tamper-free systems.
Authentication techniques are based on public-key encryption.
Robust: Java makes an effort to eliminate error prone situations by emphasizing mainly on
compile time error checking and runtime checking.
Multithreaded: With Java's multithreaded feature it is possible to write programs that can
perform many tasks simultaneously. This design feature allows the developers to construct
interactive applications that can run smoothly.
Interpreted: Java byte code is translated on the fly to native machine instructions and is not
stored anywhere. The development process is more rapid and analytical since the linking is an
incremental and light-weight process.
High Performance: With the use of Just-In-Time compilers, Java enables high performance.
