Bytecode

Term · Computing and IT · MLC-T-CMP-000148

An intermediate representation of computer program code that is more abstract than machine code but lower-level than source code. It is designed to be executed by a virtual machine rather than directly by a computer's central processing unit. Java programs compile into bytecode, which the Java Virtual Machine then interprets.
