Computer programming involves writing code that provides instructions for computers, applications, and software programs to function properly. A programming language is a vocabulary and set of rules for instructing computing devices to perform tasks. Some common programming languages include JavaScript, Python, C++, SQL, and Java. Java is an object-oriented, concurrent, class-based language designed to have minimal implementation dependencies. It has advantages like robustness and strong memory management through garbage collection, but also disadvantages like not supporting explicit pointers.

1. What is computer programming? Computer
programming is the process that professionals use to write code that instructs how a computer, application or software program performs. At its most basic, computer programming is a set of instructions to facilitate specific actions. If you're wondering what a computer programmer is, it's a professional that creates instructions for a computer to execute by writing and testing code that enables applications and software programs to operate successfully. 2. What is a computer programming language? A programming language is a vocabulary and set of grammatical rules for instructing computing device to perform specific tasks. The term programming language usually refers to high-level languages, such as C++, C, COBOL, JAVA, FORTRAN, Ada, and Pascal. 3. Enumerate and describe at least 5 computer programming languages. 1. Javascript - Javascript is a scripting language, often used to make web pages interactive. It’s text-based, written in an HTML document and run through a web browser. 2. Python - Python is a general-purpose, high-level programming language with an emphasis on code readability. It’s one of the easier programming languages to learn, with its use of common words and expressions, more white space and fewer curly brackets. It is used by NASA and Reddit, and its web framework, Django, powers the Instagram and Pinterest web apps.
3. C++ - C++ is a general purpose programming language that can be
used to create small programs or large applications. In 2013, C++ was CyberCoders’ most in-demand programming language skill, and though it’s dropped to No. 4 on the annual list, don’t count it out just yet.
4. SQL - Pronounced “sequel,” SQL stands for Structured Query
Language, and it is a special-purpose programming language used for getting information from and updating databases. Since nearly all businesses run a database system of some kind, SQL is a good skill to have on your resume. It’s also one of the easier tech skills to learn, with numerous tutorials and free resources online (we like this one that lets you learn the language while blowing up spaceships). 5. Java - Java is one of the most popular programming languages in use, so it’s no surprise it came in as the No. 1 skill tech companies were looking for. According to Oracle, 3 billion mobile phones run Java, along with 125 million TV devices and 89% of desktop computers in the U.S. Java is everywhere and the demand for strong developers is high.
4. What is Java computer programming
language? Java is a general-purpose computer programming language that is concurrent, class-based, object-oriented, and specifically designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible. A virtual machine, called the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), is used to run the bytecode on each platform.
5. What are the advantages and disadvantages
of the Java language? Java is a robust programming language since it uses strong memory management. We can also handle exceptions through the Java code. Also, we can use type checking to make our code more secure. It doesn't provide explicit pointers so that the programmer cannot access the memory directly from the code.
