give the .java extension. e.g. HelloWorld.java
Compiling and Running the program
Now open the command prompt to compile the
HelloWorld.java program. Go to the directory where you have saved the file ( in
our case C:\javatutorial\example>) and issue the following command to compile
the program:
C:\javatutorial\example>javac HelloWorld.java
javac is a compiler in the java Language. Java
compiler change the programming Language into machinery language. So that the
java virtual can understand it. Once the compilation is successful a new file
will be created with the name HelloWorld.class. To run the program
