Java is a high-level, object-oriented programming language that is designed to be platform-

independent, meaning programs written in Java can run on any device that has a Java Virtual
Machine (JVM) installed. Here's a brief description of its key features:

1. Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)

• Java is based on the principles of OOP, which include encapsulation, inheritance,


polymorphism, and abstraction. This makes Java programs modular, reusable, and
easier to maintain.
• Classes and Objects: In Java, everything is based on objects, which are instances of
classes. A class defines the properties (fields) and behaviors (methods) of an object.

2. Platform Independence

• Java is often referred to as a "write once, run anywhere" language. Code is compiled
into bytecode, which can run on any platform with a JVM, making it highly portable.

3. Memory Management

• Java manages memory automatically using garbage collection, which helps in


managing and cleaning up unused objects in memory without programmer
intervention.

4. Syntax

• Java syntax is similar to C and C++, making it easy for developers familiar with these
languages to transition.
• Programs are organized into classes and methods, with the main method (public
static void main(String[] args)) acting as the entry point.

5. Strongly Typed Language

• Java requires explicit declarations for variables, and its strong type system prevents
type mismatches. This reduces errors and improves code reliability.

6. Libraries and APIs

• Java comes with a large standard library (Java Standard Library or JDK) that
provides a rich set of pre-built classes and methods for handling tasks such as
input/output, networking, and data manipulation.

7. Multithreading

• Java has built-in support for multithreading, allowing programs to perform multiple
tasks simultaneously. This is useful for performance in applications like games or web
servers.

8. Exception Handling
• Java uses exceptions to handle runtime errors. The try, catch, and finally blocks
are used to catch and handle exceptions, ensuring the program can recover from
unexpected situations without crashing.

9. Security

• Java provides a robust security model through the use of the sandbox and bytecode
verification. This helps protect against malicious code, especially in network-based
applications.

10. JVM (Java Virtual Machine) and JRE (Java Runtime Environment)

• JVM: The JVM is responsible for executing Java bytecode. It translates bytecode into
machine code for the specific platform, allowing Java programs to run on various
operating systems.
• JRE: The Java Runtime Environment includes the JVM and libraries necessary to run
Java programs.

11. Development Tools

• Java development is often done using IDEs like IntelliJ IDEA, Eclipse, or NetBeans,
which offer powerful tools for code editing, debugging, and project management.

12. Applications of Java

• Java is widely used for developing web applications, mobile applications


(especially Android apps), enterprise systems, scientific applications, and games.
