Python Java

Question 1

Describe 4 advantages of Java over Python?

Answer 1

Depends on the project

1. Community and libraries
   -Both Java and Python have large and active communities, but Python has a particularly strong presence in scientific computing, data analysis, and machine learning.
2. Performance:
   - Java faster because its a compiled language on a virtual machine, Python is an interpreted language that runs on a bytecode interpreter
3. Static typing
   - Java is statically typed which means the type of variable is determined at compile time, Python is a dynamically typed language, which means that the type of a variable is determined at runtime

Static typing can help catch errors earlier in the development process and make code more maintainable, but it can also be more verbose and cumbersome.

4. Syntax

Python has a simpler and more intuitive syntax than Java, which can make it easier to learn and use. Python code is also generally more concise than Java code.
