Java is a programming language originally developed by Sun Microsystems and released in 1995.
Java applications are typically compiled to bytecode, although compilation to native machine
code is also possible. At runtime, bytecode is usually either interpreted or compiled to native
code for execution, although direct hardware execution of bytecode by a Java processor is also
possible.
The language, widely considered to be the most popular platform for web development, derives
much of its syntax from C and C++ but has a simpler object model and fewer low-level facilities.
JavaScript, a scripting language, shares a similar name and has similar syntax, but is not directly
related to Java.
Sun Microsystems provides an open source implementation of a Java compiler and Java virtual
machine and most of the class library in compliance with the specifications of the Java
Community Process, available under the terms of the GNU General Public License.
