Question

What is java or javascript?

Answer 1

its not java or javascript

its java and javascript these are two different things

Java

Java is a programming language originally developed by Sun Microsystems and released in 1995 as a core component of Sun Microsystems' Java platform. The language derives much of its syntax from C and C++ but has a simpler object model and fewer low-level facilities. Java applications are typically compiled to bytecode that can run on any Java virtual machine (JVM) regardless of computer architecture.

It promised "Write Once, Run Anywhere" (WORA), providing no-cost runtimes on popular platforms.

Javascript

JavaScript is a scripting language most often used for client-side web development.JavaScript was influenced by many languages and was designed to look like Java, but be easier for non-programmers to work with.Although best known for its use in websites (as client-side JavaScript), JavaScript is also used to enable scripting access to objects embedded in other applications

Hope this helps

Cheers

Answer 2

Programming languages.

Java is mainly used for normal computer applications, while javascript is for web apps

Answer 3

Java is an "object oriented programming language" - simply put, you write instructions using something like NotePad and then you "compile" the instructions using a "compiler" program to get a program file that can be used by anyone even if they don't have Java on their computer.  Objects are sort of imaginary things which can be "talked about" and "used" in the program.

JavaScript is for writing instructions that a web browser can run like a mini program in web pages and JavaScript is only used for web pages.  JavaScript doesn't need compiling.

Answer 7

They are languages, java is for programming softwares, applications, games and more.  While  javascript is used as a scripting language that is embeded within the html (language to create a web page), javascript provides more interactivity for the user of the web page, like when you see buttons that changes when you focus on it or when you click and more.  Java is different from Javascript.
