Which type of programming language is typically executed line by line and can be written in a text editor without the need for a separate compilation step before running?
Interpreted languages are executed line by line by an interpreter at runtime, which means they do not need to be compiled into machine code before execution. This makes them different from compiled languages that must be converted into machine code by a compiler before they can be run. Scripting and markup languages are types of interpreted languages.
