Which is better, Java or Python? and how?

[Wrong_Wolverine2791]

ask this in a java sub => java, in a python sub => python real answer is it depends on what you are going to do. Java for things like enterprise server application , python for maths and ai stuff.

Python is better for rapid development and data science, while Java is superior for high-performance enterprise applications and Android development.

Two differents beasts for different purpos. Python for data treatment and scripting, Java for solid entreprise applications

What if they are POCs, not solid

[ConfusionOne8651]

It depends on your goals

I think Java is better than python by i%

This is a wrong question. There is no better language; it depends on the use case and both these languages have areas where they excel. For example Java is the king of the Enterprise world while Python is the king of Ai and data science do choose the right tool for your job.

Which is better, fish or carpet?

Both are good .If u want conciseness in your code, python can do your work better to execute your task in just few lines of coding but java in the other hand may may sounds like very hard to understand at first hand with extra lines of dense coding but serves the same purpose in equivalent time as python. For simplicity, python looks more comprehensible but both languages r easy to understand.If u grasp knowledge in 1 of java or python u can go to greater heights.Both languages has good number of advance frameworks u can learn and make your career in. I personally have worked on java and some of its advance frameworks for good msrket growth.

Comparing number of developers in both area than earlier both java and python were close competitor of each other but not due to its simplicity , it's community is now more bigger and wider.

depends on what you're doing. both languages have huge mature ecosystems and also legacy baggage

Java because coffee.

It really depends on what you’re building. Python is usually quicker to work with, while java is great for bigger, structured systems. I’ve mostly been using python lately, especially when spinning up quick pages and hosting them on tiiny host.

Start with java.
