Python or Java: which one is a better choice for your bright future.

in #programming6 years ago

One day I was just scrolling down and reading some question and answer on Quora and suddenly one question got struck me which reminded me of the dilemma I faced some years ago. The question was “Which is better Python or Java” and then I remembered my method by which I was able to get out of that dilemma. So, this article may help you to get the answer to this question because if you are in the technical field and looking for a programming language between Python and Java then you will get help from this.

To choose a right programming language between Python and Java one has to research both the languages and ask opinions and experience from those who have experience of working on any of them. This article will definitely reduce your work. So, here some information one should know before opting anyone of them and if wanted then finding Python institutes or Java institutes.

Python

Python is one of the simplest and easiest programming languages that you can start with because unlike others you have to right only a few codes for an expression. It was created by Guido Rossum in 1989 and released in 1991. Python follows the interpreted logic which is different from other programming languages which usually follows compiler logic. Apart from that, it is an object-oriented, high-level programming language with dynamic semantics. It follows both object-oriented as well as procedural-oriented programming style.

Features

  • Easy to learn

Due to resemblance to the English language makes this programming language easy to learn in comparison with other programming languages.

  • Free & Open Source

Due to the free and open source, one doesn’t have to spend any money to set up or get software of Python. You can freely create, modify and distribute its code.

  • Different Paradigm

This means that Python can support the two major paradigms i.e. Procedure-oriented and Object-oriented.

  • Portable

Python is amazingly supported by most of the platforms like Windows, MacOS, Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, even PlayStation, etc.

  • Extensible

This feature is most important of all. It is a programming language which has the facility to integrate Java or .Net components and if you want then you can write some code of python in C++ and invoke C and C++ libraries as well.

  • Embeddable

In addition to the extensible feature, you can put your python code in some other programming language like C++.

  • Dynamically Typed

In Python, you don’t have to declare the type of data as it decides the type of value at runtime. So, that’s how Python is dynamically typed.

  • Large Library

Python comes with a large library which reduces your effort of writing code for every single thing. There are different libraries such as web-browser, unit-testing, threading, databases, CGI and much more.

Java

Java is a high-level, general-purpose, and an object-oriented programming language originally developed by Sun Microsystems and released in 1995. Java has the feature which enables it to run on different platforms, such as Windows, Mac OS, and the various version of UNIX. It was designed with the specific goal that allows developers to “write once, run anywhere.”

Features

  • Brief description

Java is a high level, robust, secured and an object-oriented programming language developed by Oracle.

  • Designing Purpose

Java is designed to be run on a platform, with the help of the Java Runtime Environment (JRE).

  • Simple to learn

It is easy to learn as its syntax is based on the C++, so it becomes very easy to learn after C++.

  • Object-Oriented

Basically, it makes the programming easy by providing concepts like class, objects, Inheritance, Encapsulation and lot more.

  • Platform Independent

Unlike other languages like C, C++, etc. which require specified platform machine Java can write once and run anywhere language. Java can run on multiple platforms like Windows, Linux, MacOS, etc.

  • Security

The feature that makes Java so popular is security. Java helps to develop a secure and virus-free project.

  • Portable

The fact that you can carry the bytecode of java to any platform makes it portable.

  • High Performance

Java is an interpreted language and it is faster than other interpreted programming languages.

  • Dynamic language

Due to the dynamic loading of class i.e. classes are loaded on demands which makes Java a dynamic language.

In conclusion, I would like to say to choose what programming language which suits your way of working. Both are equally popular and at the top of in their work. If you are looking for opting one of them then you can find institutes which have these courses to teach you. And, if you are in a place like Delhi NCR like me then there are plenty of Python institutes in Gurgaon and in Delhi and similarly Java institutes in Gurgaon in Delhi and in other cities of NCR. It’s easy to find institutes for courses like Python and Java but if you want then you can always go for online courses as well. So, choose wisely.

This post is very helpful for me.

Phython is simple programming language and used by programmers hence its is simple and easy to use , JAVA IS used by gaming platform , hence it is better to use phython

python is a good language

Yes indeed.

Python has good future.

Python and Java has their own expertise.

nice articles bro....
