Java Garbage Collection

Open yashsandansing opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Why is "Java Garbage Collection" included in the programming section instead of "Python Garbage Collection"?

The term "Java Garbage Collection" is included in the programming section because it is a specific feature of the Java programming language. Java uses automatic memory management through garbage collection to automatically free up unused objects and memory.

In contrast, Python uses a reference counting mechanism for memory management, which does not have a specific term like "Python Garbage Collection".

It is worth noting that garbage collection is a common feature in many programming languages, and the specific implementation can vary between languages.
