[lugm.org] Off topic : Lost Java Skills

[Jheengut Pritvi]

Not all languages need these concepts, especially hardware languages like
Verilog, VHDL, assembly languages.

These concepts arise to reduced programming errors and be more efficient
with High Level Languages.
Fortran being the oldest high level language had its Object-Oriented
programming interface officially unveiled in 1995 after almost 30 years it
was created.

What is the advantage of java over other programming languages other than
being portable to many architectures?
