False

Either A or B

None of the above

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Interpreted program runs slower. Since it consumes more time, it is much slower than an compiler. The compilation gives an output program that runs independently from the source file. The interpretation does not give any output program and is thus evaluated on every execution.
Detailed explanation-2: -An interpreter is a computer program, which converts each high-level program statement into the machine code. This includes source code, pre-compiled code, and scripts. Both compiler and interpreters do the same job which is converting higher level programming language to machine code.
