Is it easy to become a Java developer?
JAVA is used especially in client-server web applications and not only that it has nearly 9 million developers. Now, don’t be afraid, it is a simple programming language, It can be learned easily once you started to concentrate on the concepts and methods.
Is embedded programming difficult?
But for Qt developers making the transition from desktop or mobile to embedded, there are a host of challenges to overcome. Sure, the toolkit is the same. But those just getting started in embedded development find they need to learn GUI development.
Is it possible to run Java on an embedded system?
Running Java on an embedded system will certainly hit performance, and is probably not suited to hard real-time applications without a great deal of care. Microcontrollers are not made for this use.
Do embedded systems use C or C++ programming languages?
Yes, but it is not as widely used as C or C++ owing to its relatively large memory requirements. Embedded systems that use Java, use it for complex, non hard real time tasks. If hard real time capabilities are needed a supporting micro-controller is used which may be programmed using Assembly, C or C++.
How did you transition from being a mainframe programmer to data scientist?
I had two stages of transition from being a mainframe programmer to getting into data sciences – First one was undergoing a one year programme and the other being the challenges that I face during the day to day work.
What do you think about Java Card?
Some have their own standards (e.g.: JavaCard). The implementation mainly consists of a heavily stripped down JVM and the Java language itself, custom bytecode format and very few data types and packages that can be used. Also hardcoded limits of how many things (e.g.: number of classes) can be used. In my experience, it’s horrible.
