what are the advantages and disadvantages of java?

1. Java is a lot more complicated language than C. If you are going to learn programming, start with something simple like BASIC, JavaScript, or C. Don't start with the advanced stuff like Java or C++.

2. A Java program can run on any computer. JavaScript is the same way. It can run on any platform. Nowadays it can also run on most cell phones, which is neat. Some cell phones don't run Java, but they can run JavaScript. C language is different. Once you compile a C program, it can only run on one type of processor. The problem is that with crossplatform languages, you can't do too many things. For example, you can't read and write files from JavaScript. But it's the most widely used language. Today almost every single website has some JavaScript program in it.

3. Java is slow, as previously mentioned. It's not only slow to run, but it's slow to develop. For some reason, when you compile a Java program, you have to wait more than you would wait to compile the same program in C. The Java compiler is sluggish.

4. Free. Of course, it's free. I have never paid a dime to be able to program in Pascal, C, or assembly. Most compilers are free (unless you want to get something from Microsoft). ;-) Yes, there are compilers that cost a lot of money, but there are free alternatives too. Why pay when you can use a free program?

Advantages Of Java Programming Language

There are database adapters for MSSQL and SQL Server in PHP. I consider making use of the truth PHP is commonly used for internet programming as a controversy in opposition to it, is being rather closeminded. PHP is flawlessly equipped of getting used as a process or software scripting language. It's effective and fairly quick too; and the code is transportable throughout platorms very without difficulty. Have you viewed watching at different languages that proportion PHP's strengths? I'm considering Python. That's a rather great language, it is as transportable as PHP and it is a lot larger than VB. You by and large have a Python interpreter walking already, if you would like to take a look at it.

Advantages

cross platform compatible

free to use java

portable

easy to learn

OOP

Disadvantages

runs on a VM so it's slow

it's a high level language, so you might not have the power to do everything you want to do
