Interpreters: Interpreters are software components that execute source code line by line, translating it into machine-executable instructions in real-time rather than compiling the code into machine language beforehand. This allows for immediate program execution but can result in slower performance compared to compiled languages. They are essential for scripting languages like Python, Ruby, and JavaScript.
