What is an Applet?
Ans
A
program designed to be executed from within another application. Unlike an
application, applets cannot be executed directly from the operating system.
With the growing popularity of OLE (object linking and embedding), applets are
becoming more prevalent. A well-designed applet can be invoked from many
different applications.
Web
browsers, which are often equipped with Java virtual machines, can interpret
applets from Web servers. Because applets are small in files size,
cross-platform compatible, and highly secure (can't be used to access users'
hard drives), they are ideal for small Internet applications accessible from a
browser.
