What is Java (tm)/ Javascript?

The Java (tm) language was created to allow one piece of code to run on different types of machines without rewriting it. It has the look and feel of C++, without many of the more advanced features that often get programmers into trouble. The Java langauge is supported by all of the major Internet browsers and is a driving force in Internet web development. It was created by Patrick Naughton, Bill Joy and James Gosling of Sun Micrososystems. JavaScript, is a scripting language used to create interactive web pages.
