How To Run A Java Program In Command Prompt Windows 10
Welcome to the world of programming new programmers and hub readers. To make some ground I am starting with ‘C’ language which changed the world of programming altogether. Before ‘C’ , many language has come, but the acceptance and popularity that ‘C’ has got is unimaginable.
C Programming Language Importance
It was invented by Dennis Richie in Bell Laboratory. Although many languages come after ‘C’ but ‘C’ is still used by number of companies and programmer. As the complexity of programming increased, C++ came with its object oriented programming feature. Object oriented programming means to see the all real world things like car, dog etc in terms of object.
As 1990 came, due to internet revolution C++ seems limited to the programmer because it can’t be used for website development. This has set the stage for JAVA.
Java Programming Language Origin
JAVA is first invented in 1991 by groups of programmer like Patrick naughton, Ed frank, Jonathan Payne. Later many people contributed to the development of language .JAVA is the first full object oriented programming language. JAVA is the programming language that is used in any platform whether it is window or Linux or Lion os x.
It is the programming language that is used in website programming, embedded programming and in mobile programming also. Android mobile operating system which is almost used in all the mobiles today, is based on the java platform. After that net. came from Microsoft which followed java object oriented feature.
Presently java and .net is the most popular programming language.Other software like PHP,Ruby on rail,joomla language are also there which are invented in later part of 2000.
