This document compares Java and Python programming languages. Java is a compiled, class-based language intended for writing programs that can run on any device, while Python is an interpreted, object-oriented language aimed at readability. The document discusses factors like speed (Java is faster), legacy systems (Python has fewer), practical uses (Python is popular for AI/ML, Java for mobile/web apps), and syntax differences. It provides examples of code in each language.
2. JAVA
Java is a general-purpose programming
language that is class-based, object-oriented,
and designed to have as few implementation
dependencies. It is intended to let application
developers write once, run anywhere (WORA),
PYTHON
Python is an interpreted, high-level, general-
purpose programming language. Its language
constructs and object-oriented approach aim to
help programmers write clear, logical code for
small and large-scale projects.

4. SPEED
Python is an interpreted language and
it determines the type of data at run
time which makes it slower
comparatively.
In terms of speed, Java is faster than
Python as it is a compiled language. It
takes less time to execute a code.

5. LEGACY
Python has less legacy problem so
organization finds difficulty for the
script to copy and paste codes and
gives it a slight edge over the other
languages.
Javas history in the enterprise and its
slightly more verbose coding style mean
that Java legacy systems are typically
larger and more numerous than pythons.

6. PRACTICAL AGILITY
Python has always had an existence in
the talent space and is considered to
be the most favorable language for
Machine Learning, Artificial
Intelligence, IoT and a lot more.
Java enjoys more undeviating refactoring
support than python thanks to its static
type system and universality of IDEs in
development. It is more popular for
mobile and web applications.

7. SYNTAX DIFFERENCE
JAVA PROGRAM
import java.io.*;
public class HelloWorld {
public static void main(String[] args)
throws IOException{
System.out.println("Hello, World");
}
}
PYTHON PROGRAM
print ('Hello, World!')
8. SYNTAX DIFFERENCE
JAVA PROGRAM
class Student {
String name;
Student(String n){
name=n;
}
void show(){ System.out.println(Hello
+name); }
public static void main(String[] args)
{
Student object = new
Student(Rutuja);
}
}
PYTHON PROGRAM
class Student:
def __init__(self, name):
self.name = name
def show(self):
print("Hello", self.name)
student = new Student("Rutuja")
student.show()
9. SYNTAX DIFFERENCE
JAVA PROGRAM
class Greater {
public static void main (String args[])
{
int a = 10;
int b = 20;
if (a>b) {
System.out.println("a is greater
than b");
}
else {
System.out.println("a is not
greater than b");
}
}
}
PYTHON PROGRAM
a=200
b=300
if b > a:
print("b is greater than a")
elif a==b:
print("a and b are equal")
else:
print("a is greater than b")
