What is 'Plutus Interpreter' in Cardano?

The Plutus Interpreter is the component of the Cardano node responsible for executing Plutus Core scripts. It takes the compiled Plutus Core code and evaluates it within the context of a transaction, determining whether the transaction is valid according to the script's logic. The interpreter's efficiency and correctness are crucial for the security and performance of Cardano's smart contract platform.
