   Feb 26, 2012 · Python has a compiler! You just don't notice it because it runs automatically. You can tell it's there, though: look at the .pyc (or .pyo if you have the optimizer turned on) files that are generated for modules that you import. Also, it does not compile to the native machine's code.

   May 20, 2024 · Understanding the differences between these two types of files is essential for efficient Python programming and debugging. '.py' files contain human-readable source code written by developers, while '.pyc' files are compiled bytecode generated by the Python interpreter to speed up module loading.

   Why do some Python files get compiled automatically?

   • The reason some files get compiled automatically is because they are imported; for instance, if you use import mylib.py, Python will compile mylib.py so that future import statements run a little faster. If you later change mylib.py, then it will get re-compiled next time it is imported (Python uses the file date to see that this happens.)

   Does compiled Python increase performance?

   • There is a performance increase in running compiled python. However when you run a .py file as an imported module, python will compile and store it, and as long as the .py file does not change it will always use the compiled version. 1. File is processed by the interpeter.

   Should I run a compiled PYC file?

   • The advantage of running a .pyc file is that Python doesn't have to incur the overhead of compiling it before running it. Since Python would compile to byte-code before running a .py file anyway, there shouldn't be any performance improvement aside from that. How much improvement can you get from using compiled .pyc files?

   Why does Python generate PYC files if it claims to be interpreted?

   • They consider the .pyc files to be the compiled version of the .py file, which is not true. In this article, we will learn why python generates the .pyc files if it claims to be an interpreted language. Python is a popular high-level interpreted language, meaning that code is executed by an interpreter rather than compiled into machine code.

   Does a Python file run faster than a compiled file?

   • "An Introduction to Python" says this about compiled Python files: A program doesn't run any faster when it is read from a ‘.pyc’ or ‘.pyo’ file than when it is read from a ‘.py’ file; the only thing that's faster about ‘.pyc’ or ‘.pyo’ files is the speed with which they are loaded.

   May 1, 2020 · Python, the language, like any programming language, is not in itself compiled or interpreted. The standard Python implementation, called CPython, compiles Python source to bytecode automatically and executes that via a virtual machine, which is not what is usually meant by "interpreted".
