Central Java (Indonesian: Jawa Tengah) is a province of Indonesia. The administrative capital is Semarang. It lies on the island of Java, between the provinces of East Java and West Java. Historically and culturally, Yogyakarta is also a part of the Central Java region, but it is a separate political entity. Some regions in Central Java such as Surakarta (Solo) and Banyumasan have their own special identity based on their history, culture and language/dialect and traditions. The population of Central Java is 30,851,144 (2000 census), makin ...

The word Java, by itself, usually refers to the Java programming language which was designed for use with the Java platform. Programming languages are typically outside of the scope of the phrase "platform". However, Sun does not encourage the use of any other languages with the platform, and lists the Java programming language as a core part of the Java 2 platform. The language and runtime are t ...

Java programs are a typical example of the latter point. Java source code is "compiled" to an intermediate-language bytecode which is then interpreted by an interpreter, the JVM, which then interfaces that program with the Java software libraries. In phones, PDAs and other wireless mobile devices, these libraries are the J2ME. Some phones, even without a full fledged OS, enable Java programs such as games to operate. Java and the bytecode are said to be platform independent. But this is because Java is the platform as well as a progra ...

In the Java programming language, Boolean variables are represented by the type boolean, which is 1 byte long. No explicit or implicit casts to or from boolean are permitted, i.e the code: int i = 5; if (i) System.out.println("I is five"); will produce errors. Code to output a boolean could be represented like this: boolean myBool = (i==5); System.out.println(myBool ? "I = 5" : "I != 5"); ...

In the Java programming language, boolean variables are represented by the type boolean, which typically occupies one byte (the actual representation is left to the JVM). No explicit or implicit casts to or from boolean are permitted. The code int i = 5; if (i) System.out.println("I is five"); will produce errors. Code to output a boolean could be represented as boolean myBool = (i == 5); System.out ...

Java island - Natural. Java (7° S 109° E) is in a chain of islands with Kalimantan (Borneo) to the north, Sumatra to the northwest, Bali to the east, Sulawesi to the northeast and Christmas Island to the south. It is the world's 13th largest island. Java is almost entirely of volcanic origin; and contains no fewer than thirty-eight mountains of that conical form, which indicates their having at one time or another been ...

Generally speaking, the three major cultures of Java are the Sundanese culture of West Java, the Central Java culture, and the East Java culture. In the western part of Central Java, usually named the Banyumasan region, a cultural mingling occurred; bringing together Javanese culture and Sundanese culture to create the Banyumasan culture. In the central Javan court cities of Yogyakarta and Surakarta, contemporary kings trace their lineages back to the pre-colonial Islamic kingdoms that ruled the region, making those places especially strong repositories of classical Javanese culture. Classic arts of Java include ...

Java island - Paleontology. The island of Java is famous for several paleoanthropological finds of early hominid specimens. In particular, the 1891 discovery of cranial fossil remains commonly known as "Java man" (now designated as Trinil 2, after the Trinil site on the Bengawan Solo River), is famous for being the first such discovery of an early hominid specimen outside of Europe. This find, and several subsequent ones which have been made at various locations along the river's valleys, are now generally classified as belong ...

Most Javanese (93%) are Muslims, either of the Abangan (40%) (nominal) type or orthodox (60%). Small Hindu (1-2%) enclaves are scattered through-out Java, but a large Hindu population prevails along the eastern coast nearest Bali, especially around the town of Banyuwangi. There are also Christian (2-3%) (communities; mostly in the major cities, although they are in the minority. Certain rural areas of south-central Java are strongly Catholic. Buddhist communities (1%) also exist in the major cities, ...

Compatibility has been a major obstacle in adopting Java applets. A common example is that Microsoft's Internet Explorer, the most popular web browser since late 1990s, used to ship with the Java plug-in defaulting to use Microsoft's own JVM, which in many cases was not compatible with Sun's JVM. Later pre-installed Java support was dropped altogether from IE. Also some browsers (notably Firefox) do not do a good job of handling height=100% on applets which makes it difficult to make an applet fill most of the browser window (javascript ...
