Day 5

1. Java is a platform independent, object-oriented programming language invented by James Gosling at Sun Microsystems in 1991 for developing platform independent applications. 2. A platform is the environment where a program is executed, including both the software (operating system) and hardware. C and C++ are platform dependent as programs developed may not run on different operating systems, while Java achieves platform independence through the Java Virtual Machine. 3. There are two types of applications: stand-alone applications which run locally on one computer for a single user, and internet applications which can be accessed across multiple computers simultaneously by multiple users.

1. What is Java?
- Java is a Platform Independent
Object-Oriented Programming Language.

2. Who invented Java?


- Java is inveted by Mr. James Gosling
in Sun Microsystems in the year 1991

3. Why Java is invented?


- Java is invented for achieving Platform Independency
for supporting internet applications development.

4. What is a platform?
- A platform is an environment in which
a program is loaded and executed.

- A platform can be a software only platform


or hardware only platform of both.

- A computer platform is both SW and HW platform


it is [OS + Hardware Devices]

- C and C++ programs' platform is


software only platform that is OS

- Java programs platform is JVM (Java Virtual Machine)


- Python programs platform is PVM (Python Virtual Machine)
- HTML pages platfrom is Browser
- mp3 and mp4 files platform is VLC (Media Player Software)

5. What is platfrom dependency?


- A program that is developed and compiled in OS
if it is not executed in different OS, we call it
as platform dependent program. The programming language
that is used for developing this program is called
platform dependent programming language.

For example: C and C++

6. What is platfrom independency?


- A program that is developed and compiled in OS
if it is executed in different OS, we call it
as platform independent program. The programming language
that is used for developing this program is called
platform independent programming language.

For example: Java, Python, .Net, ...

8. Types of applications
- All softwares are divided into two types
1. Stand-alone applications (SA)
2. Internet applications (IA)

- An application that can not be accessed from other computers


via internet with network call stand-alone application. It means
an application that can be accessed only within one computer with
local call in which it is installed is called stand-alone application.

- A SA is a single computer and single user application. It means


at a time only one user can use/run this application.

For example: Calc, Notepad, Paint, PPT, Browser, Mobile app

- An application that can accessed via internet with a network call


is called internet application. An internet application can also
be accessed with in the same computer in which it is installed.

- An IA is a multi computer and multi user application. It means


at time it can be accessed and executed by multiple users.

For example: hdfcbank.com, flipkart.com, irctc.com, nareshit.com, ...
