Question

(a) What is the difference between compiler and interpreter ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Compiler:

It is a translator which takes input i.e., High Level Language and produces an output of low level language i.e. machine or assembly language.

Compiler is more intelligent than an assembler it checks all kinds of limits, ranges, errors etc.

But it’s program run time is more and occupies a larger part of memory. It has slow speed because a compiler goes through the entire program and then translates the entire program into machine codes.

2. Interpreter:

An interpreter is a program which translates a programming language into a comprehensible language. –

It translates only one statement of the program at a time.

Interpreters, more often than not are smaller than compilers.
