advantages
If errors are present, then they are highlighted immediately and are therefore easier to detect and fix.
disadvantages
A translation is not saved, the interpreter must be present to run code.
compilers
A compiler translates high level language instructions, called source code, into machine code or object code. It does this by going through the source one line at a time and translating it. It puts the translation into a file and then moves on.
advantages
If no errors are found, then the source does not need to be translated again.
disadvantages
The errors may be harder to correct, as the problems may not be identified until the code is translated.
