It is a programming language and its used in various applications which includes websites. But nope, nothing to do with internet speeds.

Re: java

Java is platform independent and object oriented programming language. Java Servlet is used in web programming it is programming library optimized for internet application. It is hard to say if it is the only language which could execute web pages faster than others.

JavaScript is not java, it is used on front end and execute by internet browser.

I’m no computer expert but I think OP is asking does one have to have Java installed on their computer. I believe the answer is no you don’t have to have it but its needed for certain websites to run.

Re: java

In plain and simple words , Java is a government inside a government or machine inside a machine . And you know what Microsoft followed the footsteps of Java and they came up with their own virtual environment called .NET framework .

Well the good thing about Java virtual environment is that you can run it on Windows , Linux , iOS etc , and you won’t have to rewrite your program . Same piece of code will run everywhere , even on the phones . So Java has always been able to use portability as their key phrase for marketing .

Way to complicate things for us simple folks. Why can’t you say yes or no? :asa:

Re: java

In theory, .Net Framework wants virtual machine environment but it is not implemented yet. Mono project is an attempt to bring .Net Framework libraries on Linux environment.

Re: java

Microsoft can do a lot better if it won’t treat Linux as its SaaS :smiley:
