#184758 - interpreter/compiler
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Hi Richard,

One of a number of BASIC interpreters with which I once had contact did the "build" operation during the first run, then saved the tokenized BASIC rather than the plain-text that had been entered.


Strictly speaking, that would be a single pass compiler, not an interpreter. Practically speaking, I'd not bet they were of any greater value.

Joe

P.S. Happy Veteran's Day, and thank you!
