What is Java?

Java is an object-oriented programming language developed by James Gosling and colleagues at Sun Microsystems in the early 1990s. The language, which was designed to be platform independent, is a derivative of C++ with a simpler syntax, a more robust runtime environment and simplified memory management. (wikipedia.org)

What is MVC?

Model-view-controller (MVC) is a software architecture that separates an application's data model, user interface, and control logic into three distinct components so that modifications to one component can be made with minimal impact to the others. (wikipedia.org)
