Java is a very famous object-oriented programming language. It was developed by Sun Microsystems. It has a virtual machine platform that allows you to create compiled programs that run on nearly every platform. Java promised, “Write Once, Run Anywhere”. It has a continuous contribution from industry experts, Java developers, and other open-source organizations.
Example :
Java
// A Java program to print public class GFG { public static void main(String args[]) { System.out.println("Welcome to GFG"); } } |
Output:
Welcome to GFG
PHP is a server-side scripting language used mainly for web development. It can be easily embedded in HTML files and HTML codes can also be written in a PHP file. The thing that differentiates PHP with client-side language like HTML is, PHP codes are executed on the server whereas HTML codes are directly rendered on the browser.
Example:
PHP
<?php // Here echo command is// used to display contentecho "Welcome to GFG!"; ?> |
Output:
Welcome to GFG!

| SR.NO |
JAVA |
PHP |
| 1. | It is a general-purpose programming language. | It is a server-side scripting language. |
| 2. | It is compiled and strongly-typed language. | It is a dynamic and weak typed language. |
| 3. | It has a richer set of API as compared to PHP. | It is easier to rebuild and customize. |
| 4. | There is method overriding and overloading. | There is no method overloading, but methods and functions can have optional parameters. |
| 5. | It has many packaging and deployment utilities. | It is just filed. No packaging concept. |
| 6. | It is faster for complex apps. | It is faster to create webpages. |
| 7. | It is object-oriented compiled. | It is interpreted. |
| 8. | In, Java, OOP is the default. | It offers OOP (object-oriented programming) as an option that is ignored in most projects. |
| 9. | It is good for large and complex projects. | It is good for small and medium projects. |
| 10. | It is more secure as compared to PHP. | It is less secure as compared to JAVA. |
