A bioinformatics researcher is developing a data-processing script to analyze DNA sequence variations in real time. The script is written in a high-level programming language.
The researcher decides to use an interpreter rather than a compiler to execute the source code.
State four features or characteristics of an interpreter or interpreted code.
Practise Edexcel GCSE Computer Science Programming languages with exam-style questions for GCSE Computer Science. 41 questions covering Low-level and high-level languages and Interpreters versus compilers, matched to the Edexcel GCSE Computer Science (1CP2) specification and written in Paper 1 and Paper 2 style. Every question includes a full worked solution and mark scheme, so you can see where marks are awarded rather than just whether you got the answer right.
