Python is an interpreted programming language, which means that the source code is translated into executable code by an interpreter at runtime, rather than by a compiler beforehand. Interpreted languages are more flexible and portable than compiled languages, but they are also slower and less efficient. Assembly and machine languages are low-level languages that are directly executed by the hardware, while compiled languages are high-level languages that are translated into machine code by a compiler before execution.

I feel like we discussed this in relation to other languages, and Python definitely falls under interpreted.

I'm a bit confused because I know Python isn't compiled, but I can't remember if it's strictly interpreted or something else.

I remember practicing a question about programming languages, and I think interpreted was the right answer for Python.

I think Python is an interpreted language, but I'm not completely sure. We did cover this in class.
