Tags: Programming Language.

Java is a computer programming language that is concurrent class-based object-oriented and specifically designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible. It is intended to let application developers write once run anywhere (WORA) meaning that code that runs on one platform does not need to be recompiled to run on another. Java applications are typically compiled to bytecode (class file) that can run on any Java virtual machine (JVM) regardless of computer architecture.
