S9:E6 - "Two translators, both alike in dignity"

We have been talking a lot about compilers, and in this episode we discuss the differences between compilation versus interpretation.

However, it does something slightly different: it actually runs and executes the code that it translates immediately (inline) as it translates. Based on Vaidehi Joshi's blog post, "A Deeper Inspection Into Compilation And Interpretation".
