What is JDK?

Question

I was starting on JAVA tutorial and on "Java Comments" part 5, theres a statement that says "Javadoc is a tool which comes with JDK and it is used for generating Java code documentation in HTML format from Java source code which has required documentation in a predefined format."
I was wondering if anyone knew what JDK means or what it stands for

Answer 1

Java Development Kit. Similar to SDK. It is what needs to be installed on your development PC in order to compile Java code.
