The JDK (Java Developer's Kit) is included in the SDK (Software Developer's Kit), which also includes other things such as application and applet tools.

How do you know if you have java?

The best way to find out if your Java is up to date is to visit the Java website. You can then check the latest verison number, and compare it to what is already on your computer. You check in your programs and files. You can also choose to update, and if you have the current version it won't do it.


What is the difference of jdk in between java 2 SE and java NewEdition?

First of all, it's "JDK", not "jdk", and "Java", not "java". What do you mean by "Java new edition"? I do not find that term when I Google for it. "Java 2 SE" is a brand name for very old, obsolete versions of Java, between version 1.2 and 1.4, inclusive. The current version of "Java SE" (Java Standard Edition), as it is now called, is version 7, with support still available for version 6. These versions are also called 1.7 and 1.6, respectively. See <http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/jdk7-naming-418744.html>


JDK version is same as JRE version?

No, not necessarily. JDK stands for Java Development Kit and JRE stands for Java Runtime Environment. They can be of the same or different versions each. It is better if we have two compatible or same versions of JDK and JRE installed for ease of use.
