Before writing your own code, you can make a search to see whether there is sample code is available. You can find already written and tested code. This code is sometimes ready to use or other times you can modify and add tweaks.

FREE to use

Big reason for java popularity is its simplicity and FREE to use. Anyone can create java applications without any fee. Any organization can use java without any licenses.

You can write code anywhere or on platform and easily run on another. No wonder many popular Java applications are developed in Windows environment and run in UNIX platform.

Omnipresence

Today java applications are everywhere on laptop, desktop and smart mobiles. Almost every electronic devices use java. Thus it is the best programming language for new or old professional. Android apps development is also based on java.

Immense Career Potential

The big reason we recommend learning java it is immense career potential .As we know java is everywhere so the jobs are available in every corner. Skilled java programmers earn good salaries and have a good future growth insight.

Here I must include one thing, that there are lots of things in Java that proves its awesomeness and reasons to learn. But I have just discussed only a few of them, so if you can think of any other important point that I missed you can share it with me in the comment section below.
