Python Virtual Machine

Python Virtual Machine (PVM) is a program which provides programming


environment. The role of PVM is to convert the byte code instructions into machine
code so the computer can execute those machine code instructions and display the
output.
Interpreter converts the byte code into machine code and sends that machine code to
the computer processor for execution.

Byte Code
• The compiled code of python source code is called byte code.
• Byte code is collection of mnemonics which understand by
PVM.
• Byte code is platform independent code.
