Hi,

Java byte code is machine independent. That is, it does not
rely on the machine for that specific OS platform and machine.
This java byte code is also maybe called as half-compiled code, and
is fully machine independent. To run this code, you need
the JVM (Java Virtual Machine) engine running on that machine.

Machine code is the code that has been compiled to run faster
for that particular machine but does not have the portability.
It is similar to assembly laguage instructions. You don't need
any kind of engine except the OS itself to run this code.

Hope this clears your doubt.
