The '''Java''' programming language, developed by Sun Microsystems, is a language aimed at allowing cross-platform application development. It is typically compiled to a intermediate [[bytecode]] language to be executed by the [[Java Virtual Machine]]. Most modern JVMs compile the [[bytecode]] of a Java program into your processors' native machine code during execution. This native code translation is done via a [[Just-In-Time|JIT]] compiler built-in to the JVM.
