Compiler vs Interpreter:-
🟦 What Is a Compiler?
A compiler translates your entire program into machine code before running it. It creates an executable file that can be run later without needing the original code.
⭐ Key Features:
- Converts the whole code at once
- Creates a separate executable file
- Faster execution
- Errors are shown only after full compilation
🟢 Example:
Languages like C or C++ use compilers. You write code → compile → run the .exe file.
🟩 What Is an Interpreter?
An interpreter reads and runs your code line by line, without creating a separate file. It’s great for beginners because errors are shown immediately.
⭐ Key Features:
- No separate file created
- Easy to debug
- Slower than the compiler
- Shows errors immediately
🟣 Example: Languages like Python, JavaScript, and Ruby use interpreters. You write code → run → see output instantly.
