  2. Interpreter (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpreter_(computing)

    A cross compiler can generate binary code for the user machine even if it has a different processor than the machine where the code is compiled. An interpreted program can be distributed as source code. It needs to be translated in each final machine, which takes more time but makes the program distribution independent of the machine's ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaScript

    JavaScript (/ ˈdʒɑːvəskrɪpt /), often abbreviated as JS, is a programming language and core technology of the Web, alongside HTML and CSS. 99% of websites use JavaScript on the client side for webpage behavior. [10] Web browsers have a dedicated JavaScript engine that executes the client code.

    Guile. Emacs Lisp. JavaScript and some dialects, e.g., JScript. Lua (embedded in many games) OpenCL (extension of C and C++ to use the GPU and parallel extensions of the CPU) OptimJ (extension of Java with language support for writing optimization models and powerful abstractions for bulk data processing) Perl.

  5. JavaScript engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaScript_engine

    JavaScript engines are typically developed by web browser vendors, and every major browser has one. In a browser, the JavaScript engine runs in concert with the rendering engine via the Document Object Model and Web IDL bindings. [ 2 ] However, the use of JavaScript engines is not limited to browsers; for example, the V8 engine is a core ...

  6. Just-in-time compilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just-in-time_compilation

    In a bytecode-compiled system, source code is translated to an intermediate representation known as bytecode. Bytecode is not the machine code for any particular computer, and may be portable among computer architectures. The bytecode may then be interpreted by, or run on a virtual machine. The JIT compiler reads the bytecodes in many sections ...

  7. Compiled language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compiled_language

    A compiled language is a programming language for which source code is typically compiled; not interpreted. The term is vague since, in principle, any language can be compiled or interpreted and in practice some languages are both (in different environments). [1] In some environments, source code is first compiled (to an intermediate form ...

    Dart (programming language) Dart is a programming language designed by Lars Bak and Kasper Lund and developed by Google. [8] It can be used to develop web and mobile apps as well as server and desktop applications. Dart is an object-oriented, class-based, garbage-collected language with C -style syntax. [9]

  9. Source-to-source compiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source-to-source_compiler

    t. e. A source-to-source translator, source-to-source compiler (S2S compiler), transcompiler, or transpiler[1][2][3] is a type of translator that takes the source code of a program written in a programming language as its input and produces an equivalent source code in the same or a different programming language.
