Programming language design and implementation

Programming languages are typically created by designing a form of representation of a computer program, and writing an implementation for the developed concept,^[1] usually an interpreter or compiler. Interpreters are designed to read programs, usually in some variation of a text format, and perform actions based on what it reads, whereas compilers convert code to a lower level from, such as object code.^[2]
