   • Interpreter
     • Translate source code line by line
   • Debugging
     • Identifies errors in your code and can highlight the location of the error/reason/ suggestions on how to fix the error.
   • Features of IDE that help you

2. Differences of how compiler and interpreter works

   • Interpreter runs the code one instructions at a time and returns the error taking it line by line
   • Compiler converts the program from one computer language to another and completes the code all at once
