   When we execute some source code, Python compiles it into byte code. Compilation is a translation step, and the byte code is a low-level platform-independent representation of source code. Note that the Python byte code is not binary machine code (e.g., instructions for an Intel chip).

   Two concepts might help us understand better why Python compiled to native machine code "may" not run as fast as compiled C or other commonly compiled languages. They are called early binding and late binding.

   Mar 13, 2023 · Codon by Exaloop is a new python compiler that can compile directly to machine code. It uses the LLVM framework to compile to LLVM bytecode and then to specific machine code.

   Codon is a high-performance Python implementation that compiles to native machine code without any runtime overhead. Typical speedups over vanilla Python are on the order of 10-100x or more, on a single thread. Codon's performance is typically on par with (and sometimes better than) that of C/C++.

   Why is there no Python compiler to native machine code?

   • Why isn't there a python compiler to native machine code? As I understand, the cause of the speed difference between compiled languages and python is, that the first compiles code all way to the native machine's code, whereas python compiles to python bytecode, to be interpreted by the PVM.

   Is there a compiler that compiles to machine code?

   • There have been other compilers that compile to machine code, but they don’t produce executables and often require some form of runtime interpretation. There’s PyPy which JIT compiles, but it only uses a restricted set of python and still requires runtime interpretation from bytecode to processor-specific machine code.

   Is Python a compiled language?

   • According with the results of the test case scenario based on the code provided, Python is not a truly compiled language. The bytecode translation procedure conducted by Python helps the interpreter execute the code faster because the code was lowered in a less resource consuming form of code from a processing point of view.

   Is Cython a good compiler?

   • If you really want, you could always compile with Cython. This will generate C code, which you can then compile with any C compiler such as GCC. Cython is great. But unfortunately, cythonized code is too far from vanilla Python. There is a Python → 11l → C++ transpiler which requires much less work.

   Why is Python compiled to machine code?

   • The C implementation of Python is CPython, Cython is something different. Other reasons why C compiled to machine code were that it was intended to be little more than a glorified assembler, because bytecode interpreters were technically unfeasible on the hardware they had, and because one of the most important tasks was writing an OS kernel.

   For this reason, Java is often called a compiled language, while Python is called an interpreted language. But both compile to bytecode, and then both execute the bytecode with a software implementation of a virtual machine. Another important Python feature is its interactive prompt.
