both are popular programming both are used in Machine learning
languages and API interactions
both supports multiple paradigm both have garbage collection for
and inheritances memory management objects
both have strong cross-platform both are secure programming
and extensive standard libraries languages
both treat (nearly) everything as both have variables and methods in
objects; therefore are object- their classes
oriented
both are best language master in
both languages compile to bytecode data science
both have a C-like syntax both plays a crucial role for IOT
development
both are widely used in the client-
side and server-side Web both are well established,
applications independent, and part of a large,
supportive community
both case sensitive
