What does Java 2 Runtime Environment SE v1.4.1 01java do?

Answer 1

This softwear peovides an environment for JAVA. When you are using some function on web to establish something, you need it.

For example, when I was using "ISI WEB OF KNOWLEDGE", I wank to know the relationship amond the article and other articles who cite it. I press the button "Creat Citation Alert" . Then I need a JAVA program to help me draw out the picture. If I don't have that "Runtime Environment" the JAVA program won't run. I'm not going to get the picture.
