What is the difference between Java & Java Script?

Question

What is the best between them?

Answer 1

They are both programming languages, but are otherwise very different. They weren't even made by the same people, the name Javascript was just chosen to surf on the rising popularity of Java at the time.

Answer 2

the difference is that Java is a programming language, JavaScript is a scripting language

You can't say one is better because they are for different purposes

Answer 3

javascript was named after java because java happened to be popular at the time. javascript was developed by netscape and was meant to be a client side language. that is still true today, but many server side javascript libraries like nodejs now exist. Javascript is loosely typed and also an interpreted language. You can even disable it in your browser.

Java is very different. It is more similiar to c#. It is a strongly typed language. It is compiled and cross-platform as well.

Answer 4

JavaScript is also a weakly typed language whereas Java is Strongly typed. Java is millions times better than javaScript and should not be compared because they differ in many aspects.
