Is this a valid understanding?

Given some source-code:

As an ''interpreter''

  • Phix reads, parses, makes IL code, ...
    • errors are detected and reported in a programmer friendly way
  • Phix then compiles the IL and saves to ram
  • program then executes

As a ''compiler''

  • instead of compiling to ram, it saves to a file
  • you can run the program at any time (no need for Phix anymore)

be well
