S9:E6 - "Two translators, both alike in dignity"

We have been talking a lot about compilers, and in this episode we discuss the differences between compilation versus interpretation. An interpreter is also a translator, just like a compiler, in that it takes a high level language (our source text) and converts it into machine code. However, it does something slightly different: it actually runs and executes the code that it translates immediately (inline) as it translates. Based on Vaidehi Joshi's blog post, "A Deeper Inspection Into Compilation And Interpretation".
