Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Object code is produced by a compiler and forms an executable file
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Object Code means computer software, substantially or entirely in binary form, which is intended to be directly executable by a computer after suitable processing and linking but without the intervening steps of compilation or assembly.

Detailed explanation-2: -Assemblers generate executable code from assembly language programs. The generated code is usually loaded into the flash program memory of the target microcontroller. Similarly, compilers generate executable code from high-level language programs.

Detailed explanation-3: -First, our source files are compiled by a compiler translating the high-level programming language into machine code. The output of the compiler is a number of object files. If the project contains multiple source files, we usually get as many object files.
