2. The LOLCode Interpreter has the following parts:
   • File explorer. This allows you to select a .lol file to run. Once selected, the contents will be loaded to the text editor.
   • Text editor. This lets you view the code you want to run. This is also editable if you need to add changes before you run the code.
   • Lexemes Table. This displays al the lexemes in your code after you press the execute button.
   • Symbol Table. This displays the symbol table of your code after you press the execute button.
   • Execute Button. This runs the code from the text editor, which in return also returns the lexeme table and symbol table.
   • Console. This displays all of the user output.
   • Pop out Inbox. Everytime the code needs input from user, a dialog box will appear.
