History of Java Programming Language.


 *-History of Java-*

Java is a general purpose and  true object oriented programming language. Java was originally designed for interactive televisions, but is was to advance technology for the digital cable televisions industry at that time. The history of Java starts with Green-Team. Java team members initiated this project to develop a language for digital devices such as set-top boxes, televisions, 
etc.
The founder James Gosling, Mike Sheridan and Patrick Naughton initiated the java language project in June 1991. The language was initially called OAK . Later the project went by the name Green and was finally renamed Java, from Java coffee, the coffee from Indonesia. Gosling designed Java with C/C++ style that system and application programmers would find familiar.
Why it was firstly named as OAK?
Oak is symbol of Strength and chosen as a national tree of many countries like U.S.A, France, Romania, etc. In 1995 the Oak was renamed as Java because it was already a trademark by Oak Technologies.
Initially Java is developed by James Gosling at Sun Microsystems which is now a subsidiary of Oracle corporation and released in 1995.

What is Procedural Programming Language(PPL)

  Procedural Programming Language. Procedural Programming might be the primary programming worldview that another engineer will learn. Essentially, the procedural code is the one that straightforwardly trains a gadget on the best way to complete an errand in consistent advances. This worldview utilizes a direct top-down methodology and treats information and techniques as two distinct elements. In view of the idea of a methodology call, Procedural Programming isolates the program into strategies, which are otherwise called schedules or capacities, just containing a progression of steps to be done.  Basically, Procedural Programming includes recording a rundown of directions to mention to the PC what it ought to do bit by bit to complete the job needing to be done.  Key Highlights of Procedural Programming  The vital highlights of procedural writing computer programs are given underneath:  1)Predefined capacities: A predefined work is normally a guidance distingu...

Java this keyword

  this keyword in Java programming language is a reference variable that refers to the current object. this in Java is  a reference to the current object, whose method is being called upon. You can use this keyword to avoid naming conflicts in the method/constructor of your object. What are the usages of this keyword in Java Programming Language . 1) this can be used to refer the current class instance variable. 2) this can be used to invoke current class method. 3) this() method ca be used to invoke current class constructor. 4) this can be passed as an arguments in the method call. 5) this can be passed as an arguments in the constructor call. 6) this can be used to return the current instance from the method. Lets see an example to understand how actually this keyword works.. class student { int roll_no;  //  variable declaration  String Student_name; // variable declaration float fees; //variable declaration student(int roll_no, String Student_name, ...

Best Programming Language to learn in 2021

The main aptitude to learn in this day and age is to realize how to compose a PC program. Today, PCs have entered in pretty much every industry. Be it the autopilot in an airplane or advanced speedometer in your bicycle, PCs in different structures encompass us. PCs are incredibly valuable for an association to scale up well. Gone are the times of pen and paper. Today, to store and access your data, you totally need PCs. The programming and engineer networks are arising at a rate quicker than at any other time. Different new programming dialects are coming up that are appropriate for various classifications of designers (tenderfoots, middle, and specialists) just as for various use cases (web application, versatile applications, game turn of events, disseminated framework, and so forth) Each amateur is astounded with the inquiry, "What programming language would it be advisable for me to learn?" Types of Programming  1. Procedural Programming Languages This programming worldv...
