Key differences between Java and C
Characteristic | Java | C |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Java has a C-style syntax, which is similar to C++ and C#. | C has a simple syntax, which is easy to learn and understand. |
Paradigm | Java is an object-oriented programming language that supports imperative, functional, and concurrent programming paradigms. | C is a procedural programming language that supports imperative programming paradigm. |
Typing | Java is a strongly typed language that supports both static and dynamic typing. | C is a weakly typed language that supports only static typing. |
