  Interpreter pattern - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computer programming, the interpreter pattern is a particular design pattern.
The basic idea is to implement a specialized computer language to rapidly solve a defined class of problems.
The following Java example illustrates how a general purpose language would interpret a more specialized language, here the Reverse polish notation.

 Interpreter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Interpreter (communication), a person who facilitates dialogue between parties who use different languages.
Interpreter (computing), a program designed to run other non-executable programs directly.
Interpreter (history), a person who acts the role of a historical character in a living museum.

 Interpreter
Given a language, define a representation for its grammar along with an interpreter that uses the representation to interpret sentences in the language.
Each concrete subclass implements interpret() by accepting (as an argument) the current state of the language stream, and adding its contribution to the problem solving process.
The Intepreter pattern defines a grammatical representation for a language and an interpreter to interpret the grammar.

 Design Patterns
The composite pattern also prescribes a coding pattern for the container's methods: when a container is called to perform an operation, it traverses through its list of composed objects and call on them to perform the same operation.
The coding pattern prescribed by the composite pattern as described in the above is a special application of the interpreter pattern.
The composite pattern is a pattern to express the structure of a system, while the interpreter pattern is used to express the behaviors (i.e.

 SENG 609.04 Design Patterns
For the Interpreter pattern, the solution is one of an abstract syntax tree with the rules of the language grammar as nodes of the tree.
According to Gamma et al., 1995, the intent of the design pattern is "Given a language, define a representation for its grammar along with an interpreter that uses the representation to interpret sentences in the language".
The drawback of using the Interpreter pattern is that complex grammars are difficult to implement.

 Interpreter Design Pattern
According to Gamma et al., 1995, the intent of the interpreter design pattern is "Given a language, define a representation for its grammar along with an interpreter that uses the representation to interpret sentences in the language"(Gamma et al., 1995).
Interpreter is a behavioral pattern in that it deals with the behavior of a program in solving a problem.
The Interpreter class simply creates an expression out of the string it is given, finds the result (using the other classes in the interpreter), and returns the result as an int.

Moreover, part of the Interpreter pattern is a "context", which is an object that is an argument to the "interpret" method that is created at the start of interpretation and that participates in every aspect of it.
This is the Interpreter pattern, which lets us represent a language as a class hierarchy, and a statement in that language as a tree of objects.
According to the Interpreter pattern, the Rule hierarchy corresponds to the grammar that is being interpreted.

The Interpreter design pattern is usually described in terms of interpreting grammars.
The Interpreter pattern is very useful for adding functionality to Composite pattern structures.
The Intepreter pattern requires an abstract method at the top level of the composite structure that is used by the component's client to process the entire structure.

 Interpreter
Use the Interpreter pattern when there is a language to interpret, and you can represent statements in the language as abstract syntax trees.
The Interpreter pattern should be reserved for those cases in which you want to think of the class hierarchy as defining a language.
Composite: The abstract syntax tree is an instance of the Composite pattern.

 JAVA DESIGN PATTERNS, Behavioral Patterns - Interpreter Pattern
The Interpreter Pattern defines a grammatical representation for a language and an interpreter to interpret the grammar.
Also, care should be taken to make the interpreter as flexible as possible, so that the implementation can be changed at later stages without having tight coupling.
Other advantage of Interpreter is that you can have more than one interpreter for the same output and create the object of interpreter based on the input.

 User Interface Validator Pattern
The intent of Interpreter is "Given a language, define a represention for its grammar along with an interpreter that uses the representation to interpret sentences in the language.".
I agree that this is not a new pattern.
The point of this pattern, its generativity, its patterness, is that the code logic is treated as *data*, decoupled from the main processing logic, and even highly-decoupled within itself.

 Dr. Dobb's | C++ Expression Templates | May 14, 2003
The Interpreter pattern provides a way to represent a language in the form of an abstract syntax tree and an interpreter that uses the syntax tree to interpret language constructs.
In this case, the goal is to use the Interpreter pattern’s syntax tree to represent arithmetic expressions such as (a+1)* c or log(abs(x-N)).
The classic object-oriented technique for implementing the Interpreter pattern, as it is suggested in the GOF book, involves the classes shown in Figure 2.

 Towers of Hanoi   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Once the language is mapped to a grammar, and the grammar is implemented with an interpretation engine; then problems in the domain can be solved by simply feeding them to the engine.
The Interpreter pattern (reference 2) prescribes: define a domain language as a simple grammar, represent the grammar rules as a network of objects, and feed problem statements to the resulting interpretation machine.
In fact, comparing the reference design class diagrams for the Interpreter and Composite patterns in figures 5 and 6, it is apparent that the Interpreter pattern is a thin veneer on top of the Composite pattern.
