Detailed explanation-1: -A compiler is computer software that transforms computer code written in one programming language (the source language) into another programming language (the target language). Compilers are a type of translator that support digital devices, primarily computers.
Detailed explanation-2: -Assembler is a computer program used to translate assembly language to machine language. Assembler is a program that takes basic instructions and converts into pattern of bits that computer’s processor can use to perform its basic operations.
Detailed explanation-3: -So all you have to do is identify each opcode in the assembly language, map it to the corresponding machine instruction, and write the machine instruction out to a file, along with its corresponding parameters (if any). You then repeat the process for each additional opcode in the source file.
