   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.

   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.

   Mar 5, 2020 · When we execute a source code (a file with a .py extension), Python first compiles it into a bytecode. The bytecode is a low-level platform-independent representation of your source code, however, it is not the binary machine code and cannot be run by the target machine directly.

   Apr 28, 2024 · Up until Python 3.2 (including all 2.x branches), Python (at least CPython) bytecode (.pyc) files consisted of: a 4-byte magic number (2 bytes identifying the bytecode version, plus a constant 0d 0a used to detect corruption by reading or writing in text mode); a 4-byte timestamp; and a marshalled code object.

   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 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 byte code is translated in Python?

   • Actually, Python translate each statement of the source code into byte code instructions by decomposing them into individual steps. The byte code translation is performed to speed execution. Byte code can be run much more quickly than the original source code statements. It has.pyc extension and it will be written if it can write to our machine.

   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).
