The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- An interpreted runtime environment differs from one that processes CPU-native executable code which requires translating source code before executing it.
- An interpreter may translate the source code to an intermediate format, such as bytecode.
- A hybrid environment may translate the bytecode to machine code via just-in-time compilation, as in the case of.NET and Java, instead of interpreting the bytecode directly.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Interpreter article was read about 63,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 64 and blocks with 36: each hit it takes is cut by 14 %.
How to get Interpreter
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
