Good question!
When we say Java is machine-independent, it means that Java code can run on any computer, no matter what type it is. You don’t need to worry about whether it’s Windows, macOS, or Linux, Java works the same way on all of them.
This is possible because Java runs on a special program called the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) that takes care of everything for you. This platform independence is a major reason why Java is so widely used. It allows developers to write once and run anywhere (often referred to as "WORA").
Let me know if you have more questions about Java or anything else!
