   stackoverflow.com › questions › 471191

   Beginners assume Python is compiled because of .pyc files. The .pyc file is the compiled bytecode, which is then interpreted. So if you've run your Python code before and have the .pyc file handy, it will run faster the second time, as it doesn't have to re-compile the bytecode.

   Aug 10, 2023 · Rather than compiling a source code directly into machine code. python compiles a source code into a byte code. In the compilation stage python compiler also checks for syntax errors. after checking all the syntax errors, if no such error is found then it generates a .pyc file that contains bytecode.

   May 10, 2020 · Bytecode is an intermediate language for the Python virtual machine that’s used as a performance optimization. Instead of directly executing the human-readable source code, compact numeric codes, constants, and references are used that represent the result of compiler parsing and semantic analysis.

   How byte code is compiled in Python?

   • It is compiled to bytecode. Then it is routed to virtual machine. 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.

   What is the difference between compiler and byte code in Python?

   • 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). Actually, Python translate each statement of the source code into byte code instructions by decomposing them into individual steps.

   How does Python bytecode work?

   • Execution: The PVM interprets and executes each bytecode instruction. Python uses a two-step process: compilation to bytecode and interpretation by the PVM. Here’s how it works: Compilation to Bytecode: Python’s compiler translates the source code (.py files) into bytecode (.pyc files).

   How does Python interpret byte code in a pre-compiled Python file?

   • @KorayTugay, when python.exe is given human readable text source code, it first produces optimized byte code, then interprets that (as you say); however, when there is already a byte code file (pre-compiled), it doesn't have to do the first step, which saves some time. The answer depends on what implementation of python is being used.

   How Python code is converted to bytecode?

   • The same thing happens with python i.e. first the source code gets converted to the bytecode through the compiler then directed to the PVM (responsible for generating the native code for execution purpose).

   Does Python create a bytecode if a library is imported?

   • Python does create .pyc files (so-called byecode) whenever a library is imported. AFAIK the bytecode can only speed up load times, not execution times. @aitchnyu: Caching the bytecode in .pyc files only speeds up loading indeed, but only becase the Python code is compiled to bytecode before execution anyway.

   Jul 1, 2024 · Compilation to Bytecode: Hidden Compilation: The Python interpreter first translates your source code into an intermediate form known as bytecode. This step is automatic and hidden from you, the programmer. You don’t need to run a separate command for this; it happens when you execute your script.
