Differences between a compiler and an Interpreter

Compiler	Interpreter
Scans the entire program before translating it into machine code.	Translates and executes the program line by line.
Converts the entire program to machine code and executes program only when all the syntax errors are removed.	The interpreter executes one line at a time, after checking and correcting its syntax errors and then converting it to machine code.
Slow in debugging or removal of mistakes from a program.	Good for fast debugging.
Program execution time is less.	Program execution time is more.
