Source sentences:
text: An interpreter is a program that reads and executes code.
text: Interpreters bypass the compilation process and execute the code directly.
text: After the special variables are set up, the interpreter executes all the code in the module, one statement at a time.
text: An interpreter translates code like a compiler but reads the code and immediately executes on that code, and therefore is initially faster than a compiler.
text: Since interpreters read and execute code in a single step, they are useful for running scripts and other small programs.
text: The main point still stands: an interpreter executes the code now, a compiler prepares the source code for an execution that comes later.
