Java is a programming language that produces software for multiple platforms.  Java is more robust and can be used as the sole programming language for an application. Java is also used to create miniature, dynamic programs that run alongside or are embedded within Web pages. These programs are called applets and can be used to display maps, weather, games or other interactive widgets or tools on a Web page. According to the Java homepage, more than 1 billion computers and 3 billion mobile phones worldwide run Java.
