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 .
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.
