Discussion Topic
Internet of Things (IoT) can be termed as network of physical devices (like sensors, smartphones, wearables, vehicles, home appliances and etc.) which are connected to internet, collecting and sharing data. There are many programming languages available for programming Internet of things. As a programmer, will you prefer Java over other programming languages while programming various IoT devices? Justify your answer with two solid reasons in either case.

Solution Idea
Java is the well-known programming languages used by the experts. They consider it is the best choice for IoT as it is known for write once, run anywhere. Developers can easily produce and debug a code on their computer. It can be transferred it on to any chip using Java Virtual Machine. As a result, it can be run on places where JVMs are used and on any other machine as well.
Java has incorporated coding techniques from to the languages such as Mesa, Eiffel, C, and C++. Java has the built-in capabilities making it object-oriented and portable with the least hardware dependency. Along with this, Java has a hardware support libraries that can access generic code.
