What does Interpreter refer to?
Difficulty: Easy
About this MCQ
This Easy Compiler Design MCQ checks one syllabus fact.
The question is: “What does Interpreter refer to?”
The accepted answer is C. A program that executes source code directly, translating and running it line by line without producing a separate executable.. A program that executes source code directly translating and running it line by line without producing a separate executable is the fact required by What does Interpreter refer to option C Option A The first phase of compilation that converts source code into a sequence of tokens does not match the stem it is a near-miss used to catch incomplete recall of A program that executes source code directly translating and running it line by line without producing a separate executable Option B The compiler phase that translates source code into an intermediate representation before final code generation does not match the stem it is a near-miss used to catch incomplete recall of A program that executes source code directly.
- A. The first phase of compilation that converts source code into a sequence of tokens.
Why not A: “The first phase of compilation that converts source code into a sequence of tokens.” is not correct. The accepted answer is C. A program that executes source code directly, translating and running it line by line without producing a separate executable.. A program that executes source code directly translating and running it line by line without producing a separate executable is the fact required by What does Interpreter refer to
- B. The compiler phase that translates source code into an intermediate representation before final code generation.
Why not B: “The compiler phase that translates source code into an intermediate representation before final code generation.” is not correct. The accepted answer is C. A program that executes source code directly, translating and running it line by line without producing a separate executable.. A program that executes source code directly translating and running it line by line without producing a separate executable is the fact required by What does Interpreter refer to
- C. A program that executes source code directly, translating and running it line by line without producing a separate executable. ✓
- D. The compiler phase that improves intermediate or final code to make it run faster or use fewer resources.
Why not D: “The compiler phase that improves intermediate or final code to make it run faster or use fewer resources.” is not correct. The accepted answer is C. A program that executes source code directly, translating and running it line by line without producing a separate executable.. A program that executes source code directly translating and running it line by line without producing a separate executable is the fact required by What does Interpreter refer to
Correct answer
C. A program that executes source code directly, translating and running it line by line without producing a separate executable.
Explanation
A program that executes source code directly translating and running it line by line without producing a separate executable is the fact required by What does Interpreter refer to option C Option A The first phase of compilation that converts source code into a sequence of tokens does not match the stem it is a near-miss used to catch incomplete recall of A program that executes source code directly translating and running it line by line without producing a separate executable Option B The compiler phase that translates source code into an intermediate representation before final code generation does not match the stem it is a near-miss used to catch incomplete recall of A program that executes source code directly.
