Native applications are those which are compiled and linked for a specific CPU and operating system. They are optimized for the target platform and therefore offer the best performance. Compiled applications (A) refers to any application that has been transformed into machine language from source code. Interpreted applications (B) are not compiled but are run line by line with the help of an interpreter. Intermediate applications (D) are apps that are compiled to an intermediate language, which is then interpreted at runtime by a virtual machine.
