Virtual Machine - Hsanokklis/2022-2023-Tech-journal GitHub Wiki

A virtual machine is software that emulates a system. It is is not a physical computer but rather something that can be run as software. You can run mostly everything that you would be able to run on an actual system on a VM. You can use a VM to safely test programs without them interfering with the host. (such as running malware or viruses).
