FUNDAMENTALS OF COMPUTER

Detailed explanation-1: -A compiler is a special program that translates a programming language’s source code into machine code, bytecode or another programming language. The source code is typically written in a high-level, human-readable language such as Java or C++.

Detailed explanation-2: -A compiler translates a program written in a high-level language into Machine language or that transforms computer code written in one programming language into another programming language.

Detailed explanation-3: -It converts a high-level language program into machine language line by line as well as executes it. If there is any error in the program, translation and execution stops and the error is reported for debugging.

Detailed explanation-4: -Compilers are a type of translator that support digital devices, primarily computers. The name compiler is primarily used for programs that translate source code from a high-level programming language to a lower level language (e.g., assembly language, object code, or machine code) to create an executable program.

Detailed explanation-5: -A compiler is a translator program that converts a high-level language source program into a machine language object program.
