Line 4:
[[Byte code]]s are another term for opcodes, especially when they are used to describe higher level constructs as is the case with the [[Java programming language|Java Language]]'s JVM ([[Java Virtual Machine]]). For instance, byte code 1A might be the "iconst_2" instruction which pushes the number 2 on the stack. This is a slightly higher level of abstraction than opcodes, which might need to load the number 2 into a register, and then push the register's value on the stack.
