dephining API

well I thought I would give a heads up about what API stands for. here it goes:

1. An application programming interface (API) is a set of functions, procedures, methods or classes that an operating system, library or service provides to support requests made by computer programs - Wikipedia

2. Application Program Interface. Generic term for any language and format used by one program to help it communicate with another program - Dave Groth

3. API stands for Application Programming Interface. APIs in Java typically consist of a set of objects that developers will use to add some functionality to a project. Many complicated tasks can be abstracted and easily performed using an API that other developers have made available - Wantii

Ok, so I think it stands for Application Programming Interface - someone please correct me if it is wrong - but that would mean that it was wrong in class time as well…
