Answer 4

the similarities between java and javascript is same as the similarity between the words car and carpet. both the languages are cross platform, but java code runs in a JVM environment and javascript code runs in a browser or node.js. java code is first converted into byte code which later euns on jvm while node.js follows a JIT compilation.
