  • Hardware layer 
  • Kernel − It is the core component of Operating System

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN COMPILER AND INTREPRETER

A compiler is a computer program that transforms code written in a high-level programming language into the machine code.

An interpreter is a computer program, which coverts each high-level program statement into the machine code.

KEY DIFFERENCE

    COMPILER

  • Compiler transforms code written in a high-level programming language into the machine code, at once, before program runs,
  • Compiled code runs faster while interpreted code runs slower.
  • Compiler displays all errors after compilation, on the other hand.

INTREPRETER

  • The interpreter converts the source code line-by-line during RUN Time.
  • Interpret completely translates a program written in a high-level language into machine level language.
  • Relatively less time spent for analyzing and processing the program
