Package

The term package represents a set of relative classes or interfaces. It is quite similar to folders on an operating system. One package may contain web pages, another one may contain photos, other applications, etc. Accessing a package is usually as simple as clicking a file link or an icon. Since many software applications are scripted in the Java programming language, they can be composed of numerous individual classes. To keep things organized, this content is stored into packages before being sent to a recipient. Platforms such as the Javascript language offer a wide range of packages designed for use in many common applications. These packages represent tasks that are mostly relative to the general programming of an application. In this instance, there are many packages a programmer can choose from, allowing them to strictly focus on designing rather than the mechanics and infrastructure required to make it function.
