WHAT DOES JAVA MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Java

Java

Java is an island of Indonesia. With a population roughly equal to Russia as of 2014,, Java is the world's most populous island, and one of the most densely populated places in the world. Java is the home of 57 percent of the Indonesian population. The Indonesian capital city, Jakarta, is located on western Java. Much of Indonesian history took place on Java. It was the center of powerful Hindu-Buddhist empires, the Islamic sultanates, and the core of the colonial Dutch East Indies. Java was also the center of the Indonesian struggle for independence during the 1930s and 40s. Java dominates Indonesia politically, economically and culturally. Formed mostly as the result of volcanic eruptions, Java is the 13th largest island in the world and the fifth largest island in Indonesia. A chain of volcanic mountains forms an east-west spine along the island. It has three main languages, with Javanese being the dominant language; it is the native language of about 60 million people in Indonesia, most of whom live on Java. Most of its residents are bilingual, with Indonesian as their first or second language.

10 QUOTES WITH «JAVA»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word Java.
1
Brian Behlendorf
No one wants one language. There are applications when it's appropriate to write something in C rather than in Java. If you want to write something where performance is much more important than extensibility, then you might want to choose C rather than Java.
2
Brian Behlendorf
What's kept Java from being used as widely as possible is there hasn't been an Open Source implementation of it that's gotten really widespread use.
3
Larry Ellison
We think we're going to be especially strong in platform where we have our two platform brands: our database brand is the Oracle Database 12c, and our programming language brand is this thing called Java.
4
Miguel de Icaza
I was interested in Java the beginning, but the problem with Java is you do have to switch your platform.
5
Miguel de Icaza
I've never worked with the Java community.
6
Daniel Pauly
In the Java Sea in Indonesia, I have seen fishers going out in the morning, six of them going out and coming back with five pounds of fish. That is the end point, a pound of fish per person per day to sell for rice. That's where fisheries go if you let it happen. That's where it stabilizes. These people cannot feed their families.
7
Dennis Ritchie
C++ and Java, say, are presumably growing faster than plain C, but I bet C will still be around.
8
Dennis Ritchie
I'm just an observer of Java, and where Microsoft wants to go with C# is too early to tell.
9
Guido van Rossum
Now, it's my belief that Python is a lot easier than to teach to students programming and teach them C or C++ or Java at the same time because all the details of the languages are so much harder. Other scripting languages really don't work very well there either.
10
Guido van Rossum
In my daily work, I work on very large, complex, distributed systems built out of many Python modules and packages. The focus is very similar to what you find, for example, in Java and, in general, in systems programming languages.
