Java is a Language primarily used for internet-based applications. Its development Started at Sun Microsystems in 1991 by a team led by James Gosling. The Complied Code of other high-Level Languages is machine dependent. 

The programs developed in java are simple to implement and use, even in Consumer electronics products like TV Set-top boxes, hand held devices, telephones, and VCRs. 

Java uses the Concept of just-in-time Compilation, in which Java programs are typically compiled into machine-independent byte-code. 

Java was developed as a small Subset of  C++ features to keep it simple and easy to use. Several of the Complex features of C++, Such as pointer and multiple inheritance, are not part of java, Java is Considered to be a “Clean” object- Oriented language.
