Java Program Structure

This course is built upon the fundamental knowledge of Python programming. Starting with Python as a base, we will become acquainted with Java. The first step of our journey involves an introduction to the Java program, including its language structure and execution mechanism.


In this lesson, we’ll explore the structure of a Java program, starting with a simple “Hello World” example. We’ll dissect each component and compare it with its equivalent in Python.

Anatomy of a Java program: Hello World

In computer programming, one of the most fundamental tasks is to create a program called “Hello world!” This program is very simple and straightforward, which makes it a great starting point for newbies. Compared to more intricate programs, troubleshooting “Hello world!” is a breeze; the only difficult part is adhering to the rules in writing code. To simplify this concept, let’s examine the difference between the “Hello world!” program in Python and Java.
