Detailed explanation-1: -Most important criteria for evaluating programming languages include: Readability, writability, reliability, cost.
Detailed explanation-2: -Software that requires much environment-related configuration and tuning will cost time and effort as new versions move through the lifecycle. Portability saves time and mental overhead for anyone involved in moving new versions of the software across environments.
Detailed explanation-3: -Portability is a characteristic attributed to a computer program if it can be used in an operating systems other than the one in which it was created without requiring major rework. Porting is the task of doing any work necessary to make the computer program run in the new environment.
