What are the Features of Java programming language?

Java offers many good features for programmers such as object-oriented, portable, simple, secured etc….

Some of the major Java features are is given below with an explanation.

  • Object Oriented

An object-oriented feature is a concept in some programming languages. Java supports oop concept or rules. Object and their two functionalities archive important Java object-oriented concept.

There are

  • Data
  • Behaviour

We can make and extend codes of Java as a combination of different types of objects and incorporate functionality.

The basic supported concept of OOPs are

  1. Object
  2. Class
  3. inheritance
  4. Polymorphism
  5. Abstraction
  6. Encapsulation

 

  • Platform independent:

One of the important features of Java is the platform independence, Unlike other languages c\c++, Java is a “write once, runs anywhere” language. To run a Software, software and hardware environment both are needed.  When the software changes to machine language from third generation language depend on the platform.

However,  Java class file can be run on any platform any time because this bytecode is platform independent. Thus, can be run on any machine and any operating system.

  • Simple

Java is easy to learn and simply understand.

All matters of Java are based on C++(Syntax, flow). Also, easy for coders to learn to understand and make software than any other language(C, C++).

Developers have removed many conflicting and confusing features from Java. There are the multilevel inheritance, pointers and operator overloading.

The user does not need to remove non-referenced object because Java has automated garbage collection. They automatically remove unusual objects.

  • Secure

Java is chosen by developers as it is more secure than other languages c/c++/python etc. That is because it is built with many security features. We can develop virus-free system with Java Automated security systems(Automatic teller machine).

  • Architectural- neutral

Java has no dependent system or computer architecture. Architecture wise, Java codes are easy to compile and run compared to other languages(32 bit and 64-bit architecture available in the machine).

  • Portable

Java bytecode is transferable and accessible using any portable storage device from one platform to another platform ( platform independent).

  • Robust

    – Java is a very stable and strong language

  1. It uses Automatic memory management.
  2. the confusing concept has been removed from Java
  3. There is an automatic garbage collection
  • High Performance

Java is faster and provides higher performance than any other traditional language. Bytecode provided by Java compiler is closer to native code of Java.

  • Distributed

Java is a distributed language thus a user can create code and execute from one system and then move to another system easily.  Java is used to create internet and desktop applications and to move from local computer to remote storage.

  • Dynamic

Java is more dynamic than C/C++ because when Java has been designed to adapt to an evolving environment. Also, its dynamic compilation and automatic memory management (Garbage collection) can link new Java class library, java object and Java method.
