JavaScript & Java
JavaScript is a programming language used to create interactive web browsers, websites and mobile applications. HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) is also used to markup the content and CSS (Cascading Stylesheets) is for the design and layout of that content. Without these components, we won't get the apps and web browsers we had desired and needed for every aspect of our lives.
According to Mozilla.org, Java and JavaScript are similar in purpose, however different in language; Java is programming language while JavaScript is a scripting language. I first got interested in JavaScript since Sophomore year when I had the Young writer's code elective. We learned how to code drawings, animations and websites on Khan Academy.
To elaborate more, JavaScript is a scripting language, and the script is run by a document written and the entire code is run in a file to avoid writing it over and over again. The searches we make or entering website addresses on the internet are commands being taken and executed by the browser and comes up with the intended results. Without HTML, there is no "declaration" of what appears on the webpage, and we won't have our webpages. About declaration, declarative programming is a programming paradigm, which is the style of building the structure and elements of computer programs- it expresses the logic of a computation without describing its control flaw.
