- Used for developing software on various platforms (mobile, desktop, servers)
- Machine-independent
Java Syntax and Errors
- Syntax Errors: Errors in the structure (grammar) of the code
- Semantic Errors: Errors in the meaning of the code
Java API
- Application Programming Interface (API) is a library of pre-defined Java code
- Enables reuse of existing code, making development faster
Java Editions

- Both JRE and JDK contain the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) which executes Java code on various systems, making Java platform-independent
IDE (Integrated Development Environment)
- A software program for developing Java programs
- Writing (source code): Creating Java code
- Compiling (machine code): Translating source code into machine code
- Debugging (tools): Identifying errors in code
- Building (executable files): Combining files into runnable form
