Is PHP a compiler or interpreter?
It is normally interpreted by another computer program. However subsets of the language can be compiled.
Is C programming works without assembler compiler interpreter?
No, a C program cant work without an interpreter or compiler or assembler as the code written in the program is not understood directly by the computer so it needs any of the above translator program to make the program understandable to the computer.-Shruti Jain
How does an interpreter translate high-level code to machine code?
A computer does not execute a program in a high level language. A computer executes a program in machine language. The high level language is converted into machine language by a compiler. Alternatively, an interpreter executes on the computer in machine language and the interpreter executes the high level language.
What are the similarities between compiler and interpreter?
Both compiler and interpreter are the language programs that translates source program into machine code or we can say object code. Both are used to find errors in source program.

Why would you use an interperter?
In computer science, an interpreter normally means a computer program that executes, i.e. performs, instructions written in a programming language. An interpreter may be a program that eitherexecutes the source code directlytranslates source code into some efficient intermediate representation (code) and immediately executes thisexplicitly executes stored precompiled code[1] made by a compiler which is part of the interpreter system
