Jshell : Java REPL

June 25, 2019July 4, 2019Functional Programming, Java, Tech Blogsjava9, jshell, REPL

Reading Time: 3 minutes A good programmer is always lazy when it comes to writing the code. They always try to complete their functionality in minimum lines of code. The same thing is expected by them when it comes to debugging or learning new features. In order to fulfill this requirement, almost every programming language has a REPL, a tool which has proved to be of great importance, especially for Continue Reading

Reading Time: 4 minutes Java Platform Modular System is commonly known as JPMS. The concept of JPMS i.e. Java Platform Module System came in Java 9. Its development was first started in 2005 and finally in 2017, this concept came under the project named Jigsaw. Until Java 8, we used jar files, but from Java 9 onwards, we will be using modules. Modularity is the basic rule of good Continue Reading
