• Java

• JavaScript

  JavaScript is the Netscape-developed object scripting language used in millions of web pages and server applications worldwide. Netscape’s JavaScript is a superset of the ECMA-262 Edition 3 (ECMAScript) standard scripting language, with only mild differences from the published standard. Contrary to popular misconception, JavaScript is not “Interpretive Java”. In a nutshell, JavaScript is a dynamic scripting language supporting prototype based object construction. The basic syntax is intentionally similar to both Java and C++ to reduce the number of new concepts required to learn the language. Language constructs, such as if statements, for and while loops, and switch and try … catch blocks function the same as in these languages (or nearly so.)

  Netscape was not creative enough by picking a confusingly similar name to Java, although there is no relation whatsoever between Java and JavaScript. Probably just to hop along Java’s popularity at the time. I like the original name, LiveScript, better.
