| rdfs:comment | - Rather than being interpreted one instruction at a time, Java bytecode can be recompiled at each particular system platform by a just-in-time compiler. Usually, this will enable the Java program to run faster. In Java, bytecode is contained in a binary file with a .CLASS suffix.
- Bytecode denotes various forms of instruction sets designed for efficient execution by a software interpreter as well as being suitable for further compilation into machine code.
- Bytecode is a set of machine-readable instructions: it's what the computer executes, after code written in a programming language is compiled. In ROBLOX Lua's case, users used to be able to load raw Lua bytecode using the loadstring function, and it was often used for one of two purposes:
* Obfuscating the code, to avoid modification of a script– aiding particularly to avoid model copying
* Malicious scripts which would use flaws in the verification algorithm to perform things they shouldn't be able to normally

* Malicious scripts which would use flaws in the verification algorithm to perform things they shouldn't be able to normally Bytecode was removed from ROBLOX August 3, 2012, due to the various security issues it implicated and because it shouldn't have been allowed in the first place. It is known that popular places, such as Wingman8's Galleons, were left broken due to them using bytecode as an obfuscation method.
