Describe the process of running a Python program.

<p>First, a script consisting of expressions in a specific programming language is written in a text editor. Then, this script is sent to an interpreter for execution. The interpreter converts the code into intermediate byte code, and then a virtual machine translates the obtained byte code into instructions that can be executed by the operating system.</p> Signup and view all the answers
