Answer to Question #222899 in Algorithms for hay

Question

Describe the parts/components of a language processing system and describe the role each component plays in the compilation process

What is the output of each part of the language processing system

Answer 1

We know that the computer is the assembly of hardware and software. The hardware knows a language that is hard for us to grasp, we write the program in high level language that is much and less complicated and which maintains it's thoughts.

High level language : It includes the pre-processor directives which is defined by #define or #include which is called HLL.

Pre-processor : It performs file inclusion, augmentation and micro-processing.

Assembly language : It is neither in binary form nor in high level.

Assembler : The output of assembler is called object file. It translate the assembly language into the machine language.

Interpreter : It converts high level language into the low level machine language.

Relocatable machine code: It can be loaded and run at any point.

Loader / linker : It converts the relocatable code into the absolute code and tries to run the program resulting into the running program.
