[Trisquel-users] Re : Need to Uninstall Trisquel

There literally are countless high-level programming languages. Most of them  
are unpopular though. Bash and Python are high-level programming languages.  
They are not compiled though, i.e., Bash/Python programs are not turned into  
executables (written in the assembly language that the processor  
understands). They are interpreted: when you execute them, a separate program  
(the "interpreter") reads the Bash/Python programs you execute and transforms  
the next Python/Bash statement to execute into assembly instructions.

@purists: I know there are Python compilers too.
