Bytecode

[Sathya Shanmugam]

hi all, I am totally new to Java

I don't understand bytecode,native code , intrepretor and JIT compiler
Could someone explain to me in detail, Thanks in advance

i'm not an expert, but i'll give it a shot...

java is a language YOU can read and understand.

bytecode is a language the Java Virtual Machine (jvm) can understand.

native code is a language that your MACHINE can understand.
