An Intrepeter is a program which is used to compile programs, i.e., from source code to object code. This is done line by line by the Interpreter.
For eg. the BASIC programming language uses a Interpreter to compile its programs. Here the program is compiled line by line and if there is any error found, the compiling stops immediately and specifies the error. Only after correcting the specified error, you can continue compiling.
C programming language uses a compiler for compiling its programs. Here the whole program is compiled fully and all the errors are specified after compilation.

Intrepeter is a program which executes line by line, converts each line from source code to machine code (which machine/PC understands). Intrepeters are bit slow in speed. Better option is one should use compilers.

A computer program that translates and executes each statement or construct of a computer program before translating and executing the next.
The interpreter must be resident in the computer each time a program [source code file] written in an interpreted language is executed.
Contrast with assembler, compiler.

An Interpreter is Like Compiler
The Compiler will go thru the whole code and finally if there is any error it will display.
But, Interpreter goes thru the code Line by Line .
If the line has got error it will display the error and will not got to next line until u coorrect it.
Better option for debugging but performance is worst.

An Interpreter is a program that implements or simulates a virtual machine using the base set of instructions of a programming language as its machine language.

Interpreted is a program that interpret some thing. For example Web Browser interpret html and javascript, Java interpret java byte code etc..
