And I'd tend to consider it a Byte-Code Interpreted language (a la UCSD
P-code Pascal). I also consider standard Java to be such.
In contrast, I consider "compiled" to mean the end result of the
compilation step is native instruction set for the processor. And true
"interpreted" is more like classic BASIC (which /tokenized/ the program but
the tokens mapped 1:1 with the source keywords. Tokenization saved a few
bytes as "while" and "for" condensed to single bytes -- but then needed
long subroutines at run time to actually process them.
