Interpretation vs Compilation
Hi All, thanks for taking the time to read my post!
I just wanted to ask what the difference is between an interpreted and a compiled language? Normally I write code in C (basic programs to help me learn computer programming concepts) but I use Python for larger projects.
From my understanding, C has a series of programs (preprocessor, compiler, assembler and linker) (analogous to individual machines) which perform operations to the code that translate it to an intermediate step which leads to binary which is fed into the CPU.
How does this process work for python? Without a compiler, how can it translate code to lower languages, especially if things like type declarations are so ambiguous in Python?
