The document lists and describes 10 key features of the Java programming language: 1. Java is simple and easy to learn with clear syntax compared to C++. 2. Java is fully object-oriented with classes, inheritance, polymorphism and encapsulation. 3. Java focuses on compile-time and runtime error checking to minimize bugs. 4. Java code is platform independent and can run on any system with a Java runtime. 5. Java has strong security features by executing within a runtime environment isolated from the OS.

OOP Assignment 1
A. Enumerate at least ten (10) features of Java PL and describe each.

1. Simple

Java is straightforward to learn, with syntax that is basic, clear, and easy to grasp. The confusing and
unclear notions of C++ have either been removed from Java or have been re-implemented in a
clearer manner.

For example, whereas pointers and operator overloading do not exist in Java, they are a
fundamental feature of C++.

2. Object Oriented

Everything in Java is an object with data and behavior. Because it is built on the Object Model, Java
can be readily expanded. The following are some fundamental OOP concepts.

i. Object
ii. Class
iii. Inheritance
iv. Polymorphism
v. Isolation
vi. Encapsulation

3. Robust

Java strives to minimize error-prone code by focusing mostly on compile time error checking and
runtime error checking. However, the key areas in which Java improved were memory management
and mishandled exceptions with the introduction of autonomous garbage collectors and exception
handling.

4. Platform Independent

In contrast to other programming languages such as C, C++, and others, which are compiled into
platform-specific machines. Java is a language that is guaranteed to be write-once, run-anywhere.

When a Java program is compiled, it gets converted into bytecode. This bytecode format is platform
neutral and may be executed on any system. It also provides security. Java programs may be
executed on any system that has the Java Runtime Environment.

5. Secure

When it comes to security, Java is unquestionably the best option. With Java's security features, we
can create virus-free and temper-free systems. Java programs always execute in the Java runtime
environment with little contact with the system OS, making them more secure.
6. Multi-Threading

The Java multithreading capability allows you to design programs that can do several tasks at the
same time. The advantage of multithreading is that it uses the same memory and other resources to
run numerous threads at the same time, such as while typing, grammatical errors are checked along
the way.

7. Architectural Neutral

Compiler generates bytecodes, which have nothing to do with a particular computer architecture,
hence a Java program is easy to interpret on any machine.

8. Portable

Java Byte code is portable to any platform. There are no implementation-dependent features.
Everything about storage is predefined, for example, the size of primitive data types.

9. High Performance

Java is an interpreted language, it will never be as quick as a compiled language such as C or C++.
However, Java achieves great speed through the use of a just-in-time compiler.

10. Distributed

Java is also a distributed programming language. Computer networks can be used to run programs.
Java has a class library for interacting over TCP/IP protocols. Creating network connections in Java is
significantly easier than in C/C++.
