JavaScript
A programming language that is typically used in web pages. It is used
to add features that make the web page more interactive. JavaScript was
invented by Netscape and was originally going to be called "LiveScript".
But, due to the popularity of Java, the name was changed to JavaScript.
Both JavaScript and Java are two different programming languages.
