Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Anna is asked to explain the differences between compiled and interpreted languages in her programming class. Which statement would be her best response?
A
Compiled languages usually execute faster than interpreted languages.
B
Interpreted languages are translated entirely before use.
C
Compiled languages are translated in batches, whereas interpreted languages are translated entirely before use.
D
Interpreted languages usually execute faster than compiled languages.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Anna is asked to explain the differences between compiled and interpreted languages in her programming class. Which statement would be her best response? Compiled languages usually execute faster than interpreted languages.

Detailed explanation-2: -A compiled language is converted into machine code so that the processor can execute it. An interpreted language is a language in which the implementations execute instructions directly without earlier compiling a program into machine language. The compiled programs run faster than interpreted programs.

Detailed explanation-3: -The difference between an interpreted and a compiled language lies in the result of the process of interpreting or compiling. An interpreter produces a result from a program, while a compiler produces a program written in assembly language.

Detailed explanation-4: -Programs compiled into machine code have a speed advantage over interpreted languages, as there is no intermediary step required before instructions execute on the processor.

Detailed explanation-5: -Interpreted language is executed at the run time according to the instructions like in shell scripting and compiled language is one which is compiled (changed into Assembly language, which CPU can understand ) and then executed like in c++. Save this answer.
