Java is a high-level, object-oriented programming language developed by Sun Microsystems (now owned by Oracle). It is known for its platform independence, meaning that programs written in Java can run on any device that has a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) installed. Java is widely used for developing a variety of applications, including web applications, mobile apps, enterprise software, and more. It is also used for building large-scale, complex systems due to its scalability and robustness.
