A compiler translates code in a new file, then the new file may be used everywhere An interpreter translates code at running time You should have an interpreter to run interpreted languages. You don't need any more than the compiled file to run compiled lamguages

An assembler is basically a compiler which compiles assembly code. As for the differences between a compiler and an interpreter, you may refer to this link. https://www.programiz.com/article/difference-compiler-interpreter

Those three things (TRANSLATORS) exist simply because a Computer can only understand its own Machine Language... 1. Assemblers translate a computer program written in an Assembly Language into the Machine Language... 2. Interpreters / Compilers translate a computer program written in an High Level Programming Language into the Machine Language... ^-^

If you wanted to know the difference, why didn't you look up the difference? I don't think you want to know bad enough.

Compilers -> Programming Languages like C++ Interpreters -> Scripting Languages like Python or PHP

Php is interpreted by the server, all web hostings have php support If you are using php without web hosting you should download a php interpreter About Python... I suppose it's interpreted by a Python interpreted. I think I heard python interpreter also supports other languages; I'm not sure
