Java is a high-level, object-oriented programming language designed for portability, security, and performance. It was developed by James Gosling at Sun Microsystems (now owned by Oracle Corporation).

Java follows the principle of “Write Once, Run Anywhere” (WORA), meaning compiled Java code can run on any platform that supports the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). It is widely used for web applications, mobile apps (Android), enterprise systems, and backend development.
