Difference Between Java and Core Java
What is the difference between java and core java?

Answer 1

Core Java" is Sun's term, used to refer to Java SE, the standard edition and a set of related technologies, like theJava VM, CORBA, et cetera. This is mostly to differentiate from, say, JavaME or Java EE. Also note that they're talking about a set of libraries rather than the programming language.

Answer 2

Answer:

The main difference between Java and Core Java is that Java is a programming language, while Core Java refers to a computing platform.

Java is a programming language, which has been influenced by the C language. It derives much of its syntax from C and C++, however it has fewer low-level facilities than either. Java is a general-purpose programming language that is designed to have fewer implementation dependencies as compared to previous languages. It is concurrent, class-based, and an object-oriented language.

Core Java is commonly used as slang to refer to the Java Platform Standard Edition. A computing platform allows the developed software to run. It contains computer architecture, operating system and Runtime libraries. It also contains hardware architecture and a software framework, as well as an application framework.
