Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The correct answer is Interpreter. A computer program that translates one program’s instructions at a time into machine language is called an Interpreter. An interpreter translates one instruction at a time and executes that instruction immediately. Examples of interpreted languages are JavaScript, Python, Perl, etc.

Detailed explanation-2: -In computer science, an interpreter is a computer program that directly executes instructions written in a programming or scripting language, without requiring them previously to have been compiled into a machine language program.

Detailed explanation-3: -Examples of common interpreted languages are PHP, Ruby, Python, and JavaScript.

Detailed explanation-4: -Compiler: The language processor that reads the complete source program written in high-level language as a whole in one go and translates it into an equivalent program in machine language is called a Compiler.

Detailed explanation-5: -Compilers translate an entire computer program into machine language before execution. Interpreters. Interpreters, on the other hand, translate programs one line at a time during execution. Compiled programs execute faster than translated ones since the conversion process takes place before execution.
