Compiled software generally runs faster, but only works on one type of machine unless it is recompiled. High level programming languages can potentially can be translated into many machine languages Coded statements are processed by a computer program which converts them into machine language instructions. Assembly language is a set of programs and procedures that are intended to perform specific tasks on a computer system.

Interpreted Language
Translates either directly to actions to perform, or for some languages, to code in an intermediate language for the interpreter
Software is generally more portable but does not run as fast
