How is an interpreter different from a compiler?

a: an interpreter translates and executes code line by line, while a compiler translates all code at once so that it is ready to be executed at any time.
b: an interpreter translates all code at once so that it is ready to be executed at any time, while a compiler translates and executes code line by line.
c: an interpreter translates programming code into binary language, while a compiler does not.
d: an interpreter translates binary language into programming language, while a compiler translates programming language into binary language.

Option A is correct answer, which is, an interpreter translates and executes code line by line, while a compiler translates all code at once so that it is ready to be executed at any time.

Further Explanation

•Both, compiler and interpreter used to run program with few differences like interpreter executes line by line while compiler runs program at once.

•If there is no error in the program then compiler will convert source code into machine code which runs faster as compared to interpreters.

•Interpreters executes code run line by line if error occurs, it must be rectified before proceeding to next line while compilers runs whole code.
