Java isn't JavaScript
Not really related to learning Java itself, but today I was wondering what JavaScript was and if it was related to Java. Indeed they are both programming languages and are both Object Oriented. Java was created by Sun Microsystems, while JavaScript (formally known as LiveScript) was created by Netscape. Supposedly JavaScript is more simple than Java as far as the language goes, but Java is probably more powerful. JavaScript is mainly used for HTML documents, while Java can be used to program outside of a web-browser.
So there you have it. Java is not the same as JavaScript!
