Which type of high-level language translates the entire program at once?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

Compiled languages follow this process:

1. Source Code: You write code in a high-level language (like C++, Java, or C#).

2. Compiler: A compiler translates the entire source code into machine-executable code (object code) at once.

3. Executable File: The object code is often packaged into an executable file.

4. Execution: The executable file can be run directly by the computer's operating system.

I think compiled languages translate the entire program at once, but I'm not entirely sure if scripting languages do that too.

Interpreted languages run line by line, so that can't be it either. Compiled languages seem like the best choice.

Assembly languages are low-level, so I don't think they fit this question.

I remember practicing a question about scripting vs. compiled languages, and I think compiled is the right answer here.
