Java is surely a jack of all trades... might not be a master, but does its job pretty well.. Another interesting blog on languages : http://www.sysprog.net/quo

Java is surely a jack of all trades... might not be a master, but does its job pretty well.. Another interesting blog on languages : http://www.sysprog.net/quotjava.html http://www.sysprog.net/quotjava.html My favorite : "our development cycle is much faster because Java is interpreted. The compile-link-load-test-crash-debug cycle is obsolete. (James Gosling)"

  Heh. Java gives you a stack trace. There are a few cases where the jvm is out of memory and can't, but even then you get a lot more information than "bus error" or "segmentation fault".
