Introduction

A lot of people often confuse the differences between JavaScript and Java programming languages. Both programming languages are different completely in concept and design.

JavaScript is a high-level programming language which was invented by Brendan Eich in the year 1995. It became an ECMA standard in 1997. ECMA-262 is the official name of the standard. ECMAScript is the official name of the language. JavaScript is mostly coded on HTML files. Almost all web browsers have built-in JavaScript Engine that executes JavaScript codes on HTML files. “JavaScript” is a trademark of Oracle Corporation in the United States.

Java programming language is a high level, object-oriented, and cross platforms ( Java codes can run on many different operating system software such as Microsoft Windows, iOS, Linux, etc. ) programming language. It was invented by James Gosling at Sun Microsystem company in the year 1995. Java can be used to develop desktop software, cloud-based software, and mobile apps.
