C+ is a widely popular language among coders for its efficiency, high speed, and dynamic memory utilization. Java is widely in the IT industry, Itis incomparable with any other programming language in terms of software development Let's go through the various points to compare these popular coding languages: Want to learn from the best curated videos and practice problems, check out the (C++ Foundation Course for Basic to Advanced C++ and C++ STL Course for foundation plus STL.

At runtime, JVM (Java Virtual Machine) will load the .class file and will convert it to machine code with the help of an interpreter. After compilation of method calls(using Just-In-Time (JIT) compiler), JVM will execute the optimized code. So Java is both compiled as wellas an interpreted language. On the other hand, C++ executes the code by using only a compiler. The C++ compiler compiles and converts the source code into the machine code. That's why e c++ is faster than Java but not platform-independent. hitps wn. geeksforgeeks orgisimlantes-and-diference-between-java-and-<(?ref=lop sno ‘wa8r21, 9:27 PM Similarities and Diference betwaen Java and C++ - GeekslorGecks ‘Strategy game: No Install, play for free in your browser Below is the illustration of how Java and C++ code are executed: Execution of a Java Code Execution of Java code tps wn. geeksforgeeks orglsimlantes-and-diference-between-java-and-<(?ref=lop 210 ‘wi2ai21, 9:27 PM Execution of C++ code 2.
