Implicit casting is done automatically by the compiler and virtual machine.
Explicit casting is needed to convert types of data when Java is not sure if the result will be valid. There are two times when you will need to perform explicit casts: casting between primitives and casting between objects.
Examples between primitives:
byte b; short s;
s = b; //valid
b = s; //invalid
b = (byte)s; //valid
b = (byte)Short.MAX_VALUE; //valid, but overflow will occur.
Examples between objects:
Object o = s; //upcast - no explicit casting required
String s = (String)new Integer(); //always a compile error
String s = (String)getObject(); //assume that getObject() returns type Object. This will only work if the value stored in getObject() is a String or a subclass of String. Otherwise a runtime error will occur.
Casting is essentially converting one data type to another, such as:
double d = 4.0;
int c = d; //will give an error
Whereas code like this:
double d = 4.0;
int c = (int)d; //no error, 4 assigned to c
because you told Java you know you may lose precision (if d was equal to 4.9, c would still equal 4) but that you wish to simply truncate the other value, Java is happy to cast the double to an int.
Casting is the conversion of one type to another type, better known as a type cast. A class constructor that accepts one argument is a conversion constructor because it converts its argument to an object of the class. However, if the argument is of the same type as the class then it is known as a copy constructor.
C, C++ and Java are cross-platform languages. NET is for Windows-only.
C++.
In C there are functions only, In Java methodsonly (static methods as well), in C++ both.
As we know that java is a plateform independent language and the main advantage of java is that it can support to any operating system and can be executed to any machines without any modifications.Due to the use of class in java it has become more easier to understand the program compared to c plus plus.Hence,java is portable than c plus plus
No extern keyword in Java.
Java is considerably easier than C++.

Java doesn't have pointers. C++ has pointers.

No!!!! You do not need to learn c++ for learning java!
java is an advanced object oriented programming language than c++
C can be faster than C++ programs, and definitely faster than Java, since Java is primarily interpreted. C is also somewhat less rigid in definitions as well, not as tightly structured as either C++ or Java can be.
Of course not.
