Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A language that is translated all at once into a form the machine can understand, and then executed by the machine.
A
compiled
B
reduced
C
interpreted
D
translated
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Compilers translate code all at once and the processor then executes upon the machine language that the compiler produced. If changes are made to the code after compilation, the changed code will need to be compiled and added to the compiled code (or perhaps the entire program will need to be re-compiled.)

Detailed explanation-2: -A program that converts a high-level language source file into a machine-language file is called a compiler.

Detailed explanation-3: -Machine code, also known as machine language, is the elemental language of computers. It is read by the computer’s central processing unit (CPU), is composed of digital binary numbers and looks like a very long sequence of zeros and ones.

Detailed explanation-4: -A microprocessor executes instructions given by the user in a language understood by the microprocessor. Microprocessor understands the language of 0’s and 1’s only, which is called Machine Language.

Detailed explanation-5: -A computer program that converts an entire program into machine language at one time is called Compiler. A Compiler is a computer program that translates code written in a high level language to a lower level language, object/machine code.
