JavaScript

JavaScript is a lightweight, cross-platform, single-threaded, and interpreted


compiled programming language. It is also known as the scripting language for
webpages. It is well-known for the development of web pages, and many
non-browser environments also use it.

JavaScript is a weakly typed language (dynamically typed). JavaScript can be


used for Client-side developments as well as Server-side developments.
JavaScript is both an imperative and declarative type of language. JavaScript
contains a standard library of objects, like Array, Date, and Math, and a core set of
language elements like operators, control structures, and statements.

It was created in 1995 by Brendan Eich while he was an engineer at Netscape. It


was originally going to be named LiveScript but was renamed. Unlike most
programming languages, JavaScript language has no concept of input or output. It is
designed to run as a scripting language in a host environment, and it is up to the
host environment to provide mechanisms for communicating with the outside world.
The most common host environment is the browser.
