Good Things about Java

Name: Anonymous 2008-03-14 6:46

I know Java gets a lot of flak in the industry, but lets face it; it does have some good things as well.
1) It's a Purely Object Oriented programming language
2) Fast and efficient; recent benchmarks have found that in certain areas Java outperforms C and C++
3) Built-in concurrency: Java provides a standard, reliable method of achieving concurrency, with a syntax built into the language. No more messing around with pthreads or <thread.h> **snicker**
4) Clean: unlike C and C++ where you need complex makefiles just to compile one program, Java enforces you to have your code and interface in one source file, drastically reducing the amount of fragmentation

Purely Object Oriented Programming Languages have many benefits over functional (typo?) languages like Haskell. Haskell is good for building small mathematical scripts, but not so much for the construction of large systems.
Java supports both mathematical operations and the production of large systems by using the object oriented paradigm.
Object orientation allows objects to be composed of other objects.
