JAVA VS PYTHON is a question many developers ask.  Therefore, today we will try to understand it in more detail.

In this article, we will analyze the main characteristics and differential among the two most important programming languages today, Java and Python.

Let’s start with the fact that if you need a developer for one of these coding languages, you can always hire dedicated python developers.

Since its inception, Java has been a cross-platform language with the idea of   writing code once and then running it on any platform.

Its completely free and open-source nature (before being acquired by Oracle) has spawned a large developer community with many libraries and resources available.  Java’s hallmark is its versatility, and it can be used to implement everything from desktop and web applications to video games and mobile applications.  Therefore, its use is so widespread in the computer industry that its demand and popularity are extremely high.

Python is also a free and cross-platform language that allows you to develop desktop applications, web applications, scripts for other applications, and services for mobile devices.  The main feature of Python is its clarity through the use of a clear, simple, and readable syntax that allows you to implement any operation with less code.  This makes it accessible and easy to learn, which is why it quickly gained popularity in the development of technologies for collecting, processing, and presenting data.

Basic differential among Java and Python?

Learning: Java syntax is more rigorous and detailed, so it requires more knowledge and time to learn.  Python is easier to learn, less strict, and flexible, making it faster and more intuitive to study and program.

Performance: Java is a faster programming language than Python because it is compiled to be run by the Java Virtual Machine.  Python, however, is interpreted, and this, together with the dynamic characteristics of the language, makes it less easy to run for applications built in that language.  Thus, depending on the purpose of the application, we can select one or another program, for example, if you want to create an online video club-like NETFLIX, we will use Java, since the main task of the platform is to quickly perform the “home theater” that it offers to its clients.

Syntax: Java syntax is more verbose and precise, which is more suitable for very complex projects but requires more code.

Java application to count and sum values

Python’s syntax is more intuitive and flexible, so it requires less code, but in return, it’s less precise.  This, however, makes learning easier and faster to use, some benefits outweighing others.

Python application for counting and summing values

Debugging: Java performs a large number of code checks at compile time before it can be executed, thus having a more static and robust nature.  Python does a lot of these checks at runtime, which makes it more prone to runtime errors.  This makes Java execution more reliable and Python more versatile because fixes and modifications can be added without recompiling the project.

Which is better, Java or Python?

Both coding languages   have their advantages and disadvantages.  In truth, learning any of them is useful for getting started with modern paradigms such as object-oriented and functional programming.  As for demand, both of them are in demand almost simultaneously.  But to determine exactly which language to select, you should decide on your goals and objectives.  And then decide which computer language is more appropriate for your requirements.
