9- How to Create a Class? Difference between JRE ,JVM & JDK?

To create a class, use the keyword class:

JRE (Java Runtime Environment)
Create a class named "Main" with a variable x:
The JRE is one of three interrelated components
public class Main { for developing and running Java programs. The
other two components are as follows:
int x = 5;

JVM. It physically exists. It contains a set of libraries +

To create an object of Main, specify the class
name, followed by the object name, and use
the keyword new: The implementation of JVM is also actively released
by other companies besides Sun Micro Systems.
Example

Create an object called "myObj" and print the

value of x:

public class Main {

int x = 5; JVM (Java Virtual Machine)

as an interpreter between the Java

hardware.

JVMs are available for many hardware and software

platforms. JVM, JRE, and JDK are platform
dependent because the configuration of each OS is
different from each other. However, Java is platform
independent. There are three notions of the
JVM: specification, implementation, and instance.

The JVM performs the following main tasks:

o Loads code
o Verifies code
o Executes code
o Provides runtime environment

JDK (Java Development Kit)

JDK is an acronym for Java Development Kit. The

Java Development Kit (JDK) is a software
development environment which is used to develop
Java applications and applets. It physically
exists. It contains JRE + development
tools.

JDK is an implementation of any one of

the below given Java Platforms released
by Oracle Corporation:

o Standard Edition Java Platform

o Enterprise Edition Java Platform
o Micro Edition Java Platform
The JDK contains a private Java Virtual
Machine (JVM) and a few other resources
such as an interpreter/loader (java), a
compiler (javac), an archiver (jar), a
documentation generator (Javadoc), etc.
to complete the development of a Java
Application.
