Definicja Java (EP)

Java is a programming language expressly designed for use in the distributed environment of the Internet. It was designed to have the "look and and feel" of the C++ language, but it is simpler to use than that and and enforces an object-oriented programming model.

Java can be used to create complete applications that may run on a single computer or be distributed among servers and clients in a network. It can also be used to build a small application module or applet for use as part of a Web page. Applets make it possible for a Web page user to interact with the page.

Java was introduced by Sun Microsystems in 1995.
