Compiler Vs Interpreter Difference between Compiler and Interpreter
Compiler Vs Interpreter
Compiler
1. Compiler takes the source program written in higher level language and translate whole program into a machine language.
2. A compiler program reads through the entire high-level language source program, and in two or more passes through it, translate it all to relocatable machine code programs (object module). Linker links these relocatable object modules. The output file from the linker is then located to get absolute address. Finally located program is loaded into memory. Once the located program is loaded in memory, the entire program can be run without any further translation. Therefore, it will run much faster than it would if executed by an interpreter.
3. C and C++ programs are executed in this way.
4. The major disadvantage of the compiler approach is that when an error is found, it usually must be corrected in the source program and the entire compile-load sequence repeated.
Interpreter
1. At a time, an interpreter executes one statement of the higher level language.
2. The interpreter reads a high level language statement of the source program, translates the statement into machine code and, if it doesn’t need information from another instruction, executes the code for that statement immediately. It then reads the next high level language source statement, translate it, and executes it.
3. BASIC programs are often executed in this way.
4. The advantage of using interpreter is that if an error is found, you can just correct the source program and immediately rerun it.
5. The major disadvantage of interpreter approach is that an interpreted program runs 5 to 25 times slower than the same program will run after being compiled. The reason is that with an interpreter each statement must be translated to machine code every time the program is run.
Lets understand about compiler vs interpreter from below video.

Differences between Reporting and Analysis –Theory Points from Brent Dykes blog
Hi Guys,
This post is taken from http://blogs.adobe.com/digitalmarketing/analytics/reporting-vs-analysis-whats-the-difference/
Thank you Brent Dykes such a nice explanation .
As a BI developer we ought to know the theoretical concepts hence Ive made a notes on the same from the Brents post.
Difference between Reporting and Analysis – Theory
Reporting and analysis are very different in terms of their purpose, tasks, outputs, delivery, and value
Reporting | Analysis |
Purpose | |
Definition 1. The process of organizing data into informational summaries in order to monitor how different areas of a business are performing. | Definition 1.The process of exploring data and reports in order to extract meaningful insights, which can be used to better understand and improve business performance. |
2. Reporting translates raw data into information | 2. Analysis transforms data and information into insights. |
3. Good reporting should raise questions about the business from its end users | 3.The goal of analysis is to answer questions by interpreting the data at a deeper level and providing actionable recommendations |
4. Reporting shows you what is happening | 4. Analysis focuses on explaining why it is happening and what you can do about it. |
Tasks | |
5.Reporting: Building, configuring, consolidating, organizing, formatting, and summarizing. | 5. Analysis: focuses on different tasks such as questioning, examining, interpreting, comparing, and confirming. |
Outputs/Approach | |
6. Reporting follows a push approach | 6.Analysis follows a pull approach |
7. Reports are pushed to users who are then expected to extract meaningful insights and take appropriate actions for themselves (i.e., self-serve). | 7.Particular data is pulled by an analyst in order to answer specific business questions. |
 | |
8. Types · Canned reports, dashboards, and alerts. · Dashboard: These custom-made reports combine different KPIs and reports to provide a comprehensive, high-level view of business performance for specific audiences. Dashboards may include data from various data sources and are also usually fairly static. | 8.Types · Ad hoc responses · Analysis presentations |
