The command "uname --machine" is used to retrieve the machine architecture information on a Unix-like operating system.
The "uname" command is short for "Unix name" and is used to display certain system information. With the "--machine" option, it specifically returns the machine hardware name or architecture.
When executed, the command will typically output a string representing the machine architecture, such as "x86_64" for a 64-bit Intel or AMD processor, or "armv7l" for a 32-bit ARM processor.
The machine architecture information can be useful when determining software compatibility or troubleshooting system-related issues that may be specific to certain hardware architectures.
