Problem

Solutions: Interpreter: An interpreter is a translator program for a high-level language that translates and executes the program at the same time. The program statements which are interpreted remain in their original source language, the way the programmer wrote them. In other words, the program does not need to be compiled before execution. Each program statement is translated into machine language and executed or processed one by one until the program is finished. Interpreted programs run slower than compiled programs and must always be run with the interpreter loaded in memory. BASIC and dBASE are examples of interpretive languages.
