Java is decorated by the following features :

• Simple
• Platform independent
• Object oriented
• Portable
• Distributed
• High performance
• Multithreaded
• Robust
• Dynamic
• Secure

Simple

• It is simple and easy to learn.
• Program written in the Java programming language can be four times smaller than the same program written in C++.

Platform independent

• A platform is the hardware or software environment in which a program runs.
• We can run Java program on any platform.Some common platforms are Microsoft Windows, Linux, Solaris OS, and Mac OS.

Object oriented

• Java is true object oriented language.Almost everything in java is an object.

Portable

• Java program can be easily moved from one computer system to another,anywhere and anytime.

Distributed

• Java is designed as a distributed language for creating application on networks.
• It has the ability to share both data and programs.

High performance

• Java speed is comparable to the native C/C++.
• Also , Multithreading enhances overall execution speed of Java programs.

Multithreaded

• Multithreading means handling multiple tasks simultaneously.
• Java supports multithreaded programs.

Robust

• It has strict compile time and run time checking for data types.
• It has garbage collection mechanism which handles de-allocation of memory.
• It provides powerful exception handling mechanism.
• It is strongly typed language.

Secure

• Java incorporates security through java applets.
• The absence of pointers in Java ensures that programs cannot gain access to memory locations without proper authorization.
