Before starting to learn java, Let us plunge into it's history and
see how the language orginated. In 1990, Sun Microsystems inc, has conceived
a project to develop software for consumer electronic devices that could be
controlled by a remote. This project was called "Stealth Project" but later it name was
changed to Green project. In January of 1991, Bill joy, James gosling, Mike sheradin,
Patrick Naughton, and several others met in aspen, Colorado to discuss this project.
Mike sheradin was to focus on business development, Patrick naughton was to begin work
on the graphics system : and James Gosling was to identify the proper programming language
for the project. Gosling thought C and C++ could be used to developed the project.
But the problem he faced with them is that they were system dependent languages and hence
could not be used on various processors, Which the electronic devices might use. so he started
developing a new language was initiallly called oak. Since this name was registered
by some other company, later it was changed to java.
