   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.

   Apr 9, 2024 · Compilation to Bytecode. Once the parse tree is generated, the interpreter interprets it into an intermediate representation called bytecode. Bytecode is a low-degree, platform-unbiased representation of the source code this is executed by using the Python Virtual Machine (PVM).

   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.

   Why do we use bytecode instead of Python?

   • Python is compiled to a .pyc file once and then interpreted from it multiple times. This reduces the overhead of parsing the source code once. Interpreting directly from bytecode is faster and avoids the need for lexing.

   What is Python bytecode?

   • The python code you write is compiled into python bytecode, which creates file with extension .pyc. If compiles, again question is, why not compiled language. Note that this isn't compilation in the traditional sense of the word. Typically, we’d say that compilation is taking a high-level language and converting it to machine code.

   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).
