Compiled programming languages are translated into machine code by a compiler before they can be executed on a computer, while interpreted languages are executed directly by an interpreter. This pre-compilation results in faster execution speed during runtime because no translation needs to occur on the fly. Scripting languages, such as JavaScript, are typically interpreted or use a just-in-time compiler, making them generally slower than pre-compiled languages. Markup languages like HTML are used to structure and present content on the web but are not compiled into machine code.
