JVM bytecode

JVM bytecode is an intermediate representation of Java programs that is generated by the Java compiler. Instead of running directly on a computer's hardware, Java code is translated into bytecode, which the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) interprets or compiles at runtime. This allows Java applications to run on any device that has a JVM, making them portable across different platforms. Bytecode is efficient and designed to be executed quickly, ensuring that Java maintains strong performance while offering the flexibility to run on various operating systems.
