3 First, the source code of a Java program is compiled into an intermediate format called bytecode. This is
then interpreted by any system possessing a Java interpreter.
6 Microsoft's C# is a simplified version of C and C ++ for the Web. It's pronounced 'C sharp'.

Java was originally designed for interactive television: Although Java is now widely used for web and
mobile application development, it was initially intended for interactive television. However, at the
time, the technology was considered too advanced for the digital cable television industry.
Java is platform-independent: One of the key features of Java is its platform independence, which
means that Java programs can be developed on one platform and executed on any other platform
that has a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) installed. This is achieved through the use of bytecode, which
is compiled from Java source code and executed by the JVM.
Garbage Collection in Java: Java features automatic memory management, which means that the
programmer doesn't have to explicitly allocate and deallocate memory for objects. Java uses a
garbage collector that automatically frees up memory by reclaiming objects that are no longer in
use, reducing the risk of memory leaks and improving program stability.
Java libraries and frameworks: Java boasts a rich ecosystem of libraries and frameworks that simplify
and accelerate the development process. Some popular Java frameworks include Spring, Hibernate,
and JavaServer Faces (JSF). These libraries and frameworks provide pre-built modules and
components that developers can use to build applications more quickly and efficiently.
Java is consistently among the top programming languages: Since its inception, Java has remained
one of the most popular and widely used programming languages in the world. According to the
TIOBE Index, which ranks programming languages based on their popularity, Java has consistently
been in the top 3 positions for the past two decades. This is a testament to Java's versatility,
robustness, and the strong community of developers who continue to contribute to its growth and
improvement.
