ITPEC IP April 2023 Question 7
ITPEC IP April 2023 — Question 7 of 100
Java is an object-oriented programming language designed for platform-independent portability. Java source is typically compiled into bytecode executed by a Java Virtual Machine. A compatible JVM on each operating system provides the execution layer behind the idea of writing a program once and running it on multiple platforms.
Answer (c)
Why not others:
- (a) describes a markup language such as HTML
- (b) scientific and engineering computation is historically associated with languages such as FORTRAN
- (d) business-oriented data processing is historically associated with COBOL
Key rule: Java combines object-oriented programming with portable JVM bytecode; HTML marks up pages, while FORTRAN and COBOL were created for different problem domains.
