Question

What is Java and Python?

Answer 1

They are both programming languages.

Step-by-step explanation:

Java is defined as a concurrent where you can execute many statements instead of sequentially executing it, class-based and an object-oriented programming language and an independent programming language that follows the logic of Write once, Run anywhere i.e. the compiled code can run on all platforms which supports java. (according to edureka.co)

Python is defined as a high-level, interpreted, general-purpose programming language that emphasizes code readability with the use of significant indentation. (according to python.org)

Answer 2

To put it simply; They're both coding languages.

Their key differences are:

Java is a compiled + interpreted Language whereas Python is an Interpreted Language

Java is statically typed whereas Python is dynamically typed

Java has a complex learning curve whereas Python is easy to learn and use

Java is a multi-platform, object-oriented, and network-centric, programming language whereas Python is a high-level object-oriented programming language.

Java takes 10 lines of code to read from a file while Python only needs 2 lines of code.

Java language uses curly braces to define the beginning and end of each function and class definition, whereas Python uses indentation to separate code into separate blocks.

In Java, multiple inheritances is partially done through interfaces, whereas Python supports both single and multiple inheritances.

Java offers limited string related functions, whereas Python offers lots of string related functions.

Java program can run on any computer or mobile device which is able to run the Java virtual machine (JVM) while Python programs need an interpreter installed on the target machine to translate Python code. Compared to Java, Python is less portable.

Java is best for Desktop GUI apps, Embed Systems, Web application services, whereas Python is excellent for scientific and numeric computing, Machine learning apps,more.

Java offers stable connectivity, while Python offers weak connectivity.

Hope this helps and have a nice day!
