compiling it to bytecode is not a long throw from compiling it to machine code

I didn't really follow it since studies, but you should be able to have a normal runtime for it

when i was in university, things were worse: C++

well, the executable bundles an interpreter I'm guessing

it's a bad beginner language, so that's why they taught us programming with Java back in 2002 at university

sure

I think there might be Java compilers that build real executables, too

hence, write once, debug everywhere.

They made the decision to have it compile to bytecode, "kind of like machine code", but built to run on virtual machines on just about any hardware

Java as a language is pretty good.
