The general-purpose, high-level Java programming language is a powerful software platform. Every full implementation of the Java platform gives you the following
features:

• Development Tools: The development tools provide everything you'll need for compiling, running, monitoring, debugging, and documenting your applications. As a
new developer, the main tools you'll be using are the javac compiler, the java launcher, and the javadoc documentation tool.

• Application Programming Interface (API): The API provides the core functionality of the Java programming language. It offers a wide array of useful classes ready
for use in your own applications. It spans everything from basic objects, to networking and security, to XML generation and database access, and more. The core
