I am a newbie to java.
I have heard that Java is a programming platform.
Did it mean than it can work both in Windows and Linux.
Or if it doesn't ,what does a programming platform mean to be?

Yes it can work with both windows and linux, but like all things you still have to be careful.

You can still write code that is non-portable.

Check your grammar.

I would have vary hard time explaining you, since I have no idea who/what you are, or what your purpose is.

I am an Engineering Student.
I don't have Java in my syllabus.
But I would like to know more about it as I used to hear about Java more.

you obviously are deaf and blind both as you've missed 10 years+ of information available online, in bookstores, and in libraries around the world.
