What is another example of a high-level language translator? Interpreters would definately be one.

Interpreters are an alternative way to compile a high-level language program. An interpreter will translates the program instruction-by-instruction, as required. An interpreter is a program that fetches information when necessary and executes it immediately in a repetitive cycle.

In order to execute a program, the interpreter runs in a loop. It repeatedly reads one instruction from the program, decides what is necessary to carry out that instruction, and then performs the appropriate machine-language commands to do so.

Interpreters able people to use a machine-language program meant for one type of computer on a completely different type of computer.
