History:
In early 's 1990 Sun Microsystems created a technology named interactive TV and this TV required a special language to run different machines at same time. At this time there comes a language called Java and eventually in 1994 after the failure of Interactive TV Java project team switched their focus to the web. On May 23rd 1995 the director of Sun Microsystems along with co-founder and executive vice president Netscape announced to the world about the Java. There is only 30 pepole team when java was started. Development of java has taken step by step process. There are many versions in Java like Versions 1.0 and 1.1 are the initial release of Java. Java 2 (Version 1.2), Kestrel (Java 1.3), Merlin (Java 1.4), Tiger (Version 1.5.0; Java SE 5), Mustang (Version 1.6.0; Java SE 6) and Dolphin (Version 1.7.0; Java SE 7) are the some versions of Java.
Why Java language was created?
Java is one of the computer programming languages. In this language computer programmers write set of instructions using English commands instead of using numeric codes to execute certain task. Java language can be easily written and read by humans so it 's called "high level language". Once Java program is written using high-level instructions it 's translated to numeric codes because computer can understand program only in numeric version. Java language was very simple to use. Java language was developed from the ideas of C++. C++ is also a one of the powerful language but there is one drawback about it i.e., syntax of C++ is very complex. Java language is very simple to use and more powerful. Java provides high level of security so it 's used in the mobile devices were the information’s transferred over the
