Interpreted

When referring to a programming language, an interpreted language refers to a language that does not need to be compiled before it is executed. However, because the script or program is not compiled the program requires an interpreter to run the program. An interpreter takes the script or program code and interprets it into something that can be executed and understood by the computer. Below are some examples of interpreted programming languages.

JavaScript
JScript
Perl
PHP
Python
