   Interpreted languages are programming languages in which programs may be executed from source code form, by an interpreter. Theoretically, any language can be compiled or interpreted, so the term interpreted language generally refers to languages that are usually interpreted rather than compiled.

3. Interpreter (computing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpreter_(computing)

   The terms "interpreted language" or "compiled language" signify that the canonical implementation of that language is an interpreter or a compiler, respectively. A high-level language is ideally an abstraction independent of particular implementations.

4. Programming language implementation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programming_language...

   Many combinations of interpretation and compilation are possible, and many modern programming language implementations include elements of both. For example, the Smalltalk programming language is conventionally implemented by compilation into bytecode, which is then either interpreted or compiled by a virtual machine. Since Smalltalk bytecode ...

5. Programming language design and implementation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creation_of_a_Programming...

   It may be necessary to consider whether a programming language will perform better interpreted, or compiled, if a language should be dynamically or statically typed, if inheritance will be in, and the general syntax of the language. [3] Many factors involved with the design of a language can be decided on by the goals behind the language.

6. Compiled language - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compiled_language

   Low-level programming languages, such as assembly and C, are typically compiled, especially when efficiency is the main concern, rather than cross-platform support. For such languages, there are more one-to-one correspondences between the source code and the resulting machine code , making it easier for programmers to control the use of hardware.

7. Comparison of programming languages - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_programming...

   Like natural languages, programming languages follow rules for syntax and semantics. There are thousands of programming languages [ 1 ] and new ones are created every year. Few languages ever become sufficiently popular that they are used by more than a few people, but professional programmers may use dozens of languages in a career.
