About
In computing, a compiler is a computer program that translates computer code written in one programming language (the source language) into another language (the target language); the name “compiler” is primarily used for programs that translate source code from a high-level programming language to a low-level programming language (e.g. assembly language, object code, or machine code) to create an executable program1.
