Java is a general-purpose computer programming language that is concurrent, class-based, object-oriented, and specifically designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible. It is intended to let application developers "write once, run anywhere" (WORA), meaning that compiled Java code can run on all platforms that support Java without the need for recompilation. Java applications are typically compiled to bytecode that can run on any Java virtual machine (JVM) regardless of computer architecture. Read more on Wikipedia...


Example from Compiler Explorer:
// Type your code here, or load an example. class Square { static int square(int num) { return num * num; } }
Example from Riju:
public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Hello, world!"); } }
Example from hello-world:
public class Java { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Hello World"); } }
// Hello World in Java class HelloWorld { static public void main( String args[] ) { System.out.println( "Hello World!" ); } }
