Java review

Good:

- 5 year olds should be able to learn how to make multithreaded applications
- Cross platform
- Great development tools (IDEs and such)
- You don't have to make/download amounts of libraries to develop great and helpful apps, the standard library is huge

Bad:

- Memory hog
- Java programmers: Herppppp Derpppp, internal char array?? nooo, its a string, what internal char array?? what is that
- No function pointers
- No operator overloading
- Everything is a reference, unless you implement Cloneable, sorry, i prefer "&"
- No #define

Memory hog
its a VM language, there is no executable

Java programmers: Herppppp Derpppp, internal char array?? nooo, its a string, what internal char array?? what is that
buffer overflows anyone??

No function pointers
again....ITS A VM LANGUAGE, memory does not directly map to hardware memory

No operator overloading
not something you want in enterprise programming

Everything is a reference, unless you implement Cloneable, sorry, i prefer "&"
everything is Object Oriented, oh and did I mention that its a VM LANGUAGE

No #define
a preprocessor is not part of the compiler and is none to create/harbour very hard to find bugs

in conclusion:
just because you failed at Sepples, dont think that someone is going to turn Java into an idiot-proof Sepples for you
