Forum: Chcesz nauczyć się programowania w Javie (wersja normalna, nie script)? Zapraszam

"Despite some naming, syntactic, and standard library similarities, JavaScript and Java are otherwise unrelated and have very different semantics."

Obiektywnie tytuł wątku wypadł Ci trochę kulą w płot. Poza tym ostatni spam związany z tymi książkami jest zabawny po prostu.

Jak już bawimy się w śmieszne cytaciki:

"The Java- prefix suggests that JavaScript is somehow related to Java, that it is a subset or less capable version of Java. It seems that the name was intentionally selected to create confusion, and from confusion comes misunderstanding. JavaScript is not interpreted Java. Java is interpreted Java. JavaScript is a different language.

JavaScript has a syntactic similarity to Java, much as Java has to C. But it is no more a subset of Java than Java is a subset of C. It is better than Java in the applications that Java (fka Oak) was originally intended for.

JavaScript was not developed at Sun Microsystems, the home of Java. JavaScript was developed at Netscape. It was originally called LiveScript, but that name wasn't confusing enough.

The -Script suffix suggests that it is not a real programming language, that a scripting language is less than a programming language. But it is really a matter of specialization. Compared to C, JavaScript trades performance for expressive power and dynamism."

Ale spoko, jak chcesz zaklinać rzeczywistość, to rób to dalej. W końcu dorożka może stanowić podzbiór silnika odrzutowego.

Żeby nie było, powyższy cytat to słowa Douglasa Crockforda, resztę można wygooglać samemu.
