This box is primarily used in category pages (click "What links here" in the navbar on the left), not all of which will have much information in them. If a language category page has too little content, but too many articles, the infobox will overlap the article list.
Usage:

|---|---|---|
| exec | "machine", "interpreted", "bytecode", or "both" | execution method |
