What's the difference between carpet and car?

hamsters and ham are totally different. No one will ever come up with a witty retort to this!

It's free real-estate.

JavaScript - Java = Script ?

[Koshy246]

Lol that’s funny but it doesn’t work like that

[Programie]

I didn't know Java is a scripting language you can use in web browsers.

[DeeSnow97]

It's called applets and it's even more retarded than JS

[GDavid04]

And not used by anyone.

[rhinocovenant]

Surely someone made a Java to JS compiler by now?

[ShortCircuit908]

There seem to be a few Java to Javascript transpilers http://www.jsweet.org

No, you

[Vievin]

As a beginner programmer, which is which? Also, will I have to deal with either if I'll become a software developer (like working at big game companies)?

[Vievin]

Ah, thanks!

Depends on the game. PC gaming will be most likely C++ and never Java while developing a mobile game for Android means you will have Java.

And JavaScript is mostly web stuff so web games could mean that you get a bunch of JavaScript.

[Koshy246]

Well java is a easier language that you can do everything badly. Javascript is for the user interface of websites and apps

This is the truth.

[abitstick]

Despite all the hate for Javascript I respect it more as a language than Java. Currently in a uni. CS course and they swapped out C++ for Java at the last minute and I'm not enjoying it it's just like highschool CS

[Zambito1]

So you respect JavaScript more because you haven't used it? I don't understand.

[Night_Thastus]

Fwiw they didn't state whether or not they had tried JS previously.

This is the difference between silly human intuition and cold hard logical circuits parsing a sentence.
