INTRODUCTION
Java is an object-oriented programming language developed by James Gosling and colleagues at Sun Microsystems in the early 1990s. Unlike conventional languages which are generally designed to be compiled to native code, Java is compiled to a bytecode which is then run (generally using JIT compilation) by a Java virtual machine.
The language itself borrows much syntax from C and C++ but has a much simpler object model and does away with low level tools like programmer-manipulable pointers.
Java is only distantly related to JavaScript, though they have similar names and share a C-like syntax.
As with other parts of the Java platform, the Java language has evolved over the years while largely maintaining backwards compatibility.
JDK 1.0 (January 23, 1996) ¡ª Initial release. [press release]
JDK 1.1 (February 19, 1997) [press release]
inner classes added to the language
J2SE 1.2 (December 8, 1998) ¡ª Codename Playground. This and subsequent releases through J2SE 5.0 were rebranded Java 2 and the version name "J2SE" (Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition) replaced JDK to distinguish the base platform from J2EE (Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition) and J2ME (Java 2 Platform, Micro Edition). Major additions included: [press release]
strictfp keyword
J2SE 1.3 (May 8, 2000) ¡ª Codename Kestrel. [press release]
J2SE 1.4 (February 6, 2002) ¡ª Codename Merlin. This was the first release of the Java platform developed under the Java Community Process as JSR 59. Major changes included: [press release]
J2SE 5.0 (September 30, 2004) ¡ª Codename Tiger. (Originally numbered 1.5, which is still used as the internal version number.[1]) Developed under JSR 176, Tiger added a number of significant new language features: [press release]
Generics ¡ª provides compile-time (static) type safety for collections and eliminates the need for most typecasts. (Specified by JSR 14.)
Metadata ¡ª also called annotations, allows language constructs such as classes and methods to be tagged with additional data, which can then be processed by metadata-aware utilities. (Specified by JSR 175.)
Autoboxing/unboxing ¡ª automatic conversions between primitive types (such as int) and primitive wrapper classes (such as Integer). (Specified by JSR 201.)
Enumerations ¡ª the enum keyword creates a typesafe, ordered list of values (such as Day.MONDAY, Day.TUESDAY, etc.). Previously this could only be achieved by non-typesafe constant integers or manually constructed classes (typesafe enum pattern). (Specified by JSR 201.)
Varargs ¡ª the last parameter of a method can now be declared using a type name followed by three dots (e.g. void drawtext(String... lines)).

Parameters served as part of the interface of a subroutine or method (Eck, 2014). Although I am not a beginner, the fundamental meanings and application of parameter with respect to methods or subroutine is a necessary thing to know. I am very grateful for this. The reading assignment makes exclusive elaboration of the return values and Application Programming Interface (API). Sincerely, I never thought that the java packages have some already made modules for Graphical User Interface (GUI).
Description of methods is a concise narrative of pertinent information in paragraph form. Not a bullet point list.

...rly in the 90s. Eventually, it increased its speed and added more functionality like General Packet Radio System (GPRS) to the system which enhanced it to 2.5G status. 2.5G has data rates up to about 144kbit/s. It typically uses a variation of Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA).
At first glance these two languages appear to be poles apart. Bash shell script with its roots in Unix terminal scripting versus a modern object oriented scripting language'. So, are these two languages really so different and what might they have in common? This documents aims to answer these questions.
In general, compilers translate mathematical or English-like code that humans could learn and understand into numerical code that the computer can process (Laduke). The A-O series of compilers was able to translate mathematical code into machine code; it allowed the user to request information from a certain stored location on the computer and to tell the computer what to do with the retrieved information (Borg). While the A-O series allowed some to control a computer in a manner much simpler than before, it still required an expert to operate. The mathematical code was still very complex and extensive training in mathematics or computers would have been essential for understanding and writing it. Languages for scientific applications (Fortran), computer science (Algol), artificial intelligence (Lisp) and business (FLOW-MATIC and COMTRAN) were created (Strawn).

Within this report is information on how Java Script is used on the Internet. This report will contain information that will help you learn about Java Script and its uses on the Internet. It mentions what Java Script is, where it originated and what some of its uses are.JavaScript is a loosely typed scripting language that resembles the programming language C. It is designed to be an extension to HTML and is usually included within HTML scripts. Java Script is object-oriented and has block-structuring features. The main feature of Java Script is that it lets you build interactive web pages.
According to Reed (2010), smartphones were first brought to the attention of the public in 1993 by IBM and BellSouth. When the first smartphone was produced, it was called "Simon". Even though the technology was nowhere near what it is today, "Simon" utilized a touch screen and was able send faxes and access e-mail. The use of the touch screen foreshadowed what would come 14 years later, the iPhone. The next smartphone to be invented was the Nokia 9110 Communicator in 1998. This phone resembled the look of toda...

A programming language is a set of English-like instructions that includes a set of rules for putting the instructions together to create commands. A translator changes the English-like commands into numeric code that the computer can understand. The most common type of translator is a compiler. The compiler is program that reads English-like commands in a file and than creates another file containing computer readable numeric code or commands. I will be talking about some of the major functions and uses six high-level programming languages.
Explain in around 600 words, citing any literature you have consulted, what is meant by these terms in relation of object-oriented software design, and explain how they relate to the design you developed in your group.
