an interpreter can translate only one line of code at a time but a compiler can translate a block of code at a time

Interpreter -- Compile one by one line (statement) of a program. If any statement found wrong, It won't compile and execute any further lines until you correct it. - Compiler -- Compile whole statements of a program and execute it.

interpreter will compile and runs the code compiler just compiles the code (process of converting programming language to machine code is called compilation)
