A load and go compiler. These were popular on medium sized transistorized computers in the early 1960s but have become obsolete. Two examples were the 60+ pass FORTRAN II compiler for the IBM 1401 w/ 8000 or more characters of memory and GOTRAN (a FORTRAN subset) on the IBM 1620 and other computers.
It's called a compiler.
A statement is a single instruction in a language; a block is a group of instructions.
A compiler accepts computer instructions in a language people understand and converts them into a language computers understand.
An Assembler converts assembly language instructions into machine language.
An interpreter is a specialized kind of computer program. This program executes instructions written in a programming language that is not the native coding.
There is no such thing: compiler translates but doesn't execute; interpreter executes, but doesn't translate.
an interpreter Many flavors of BASIC could run as interpreters. One advantage is that it is possible for an interpreter's program to actually modify itself as it runs.
An assembler is a machine code program that converts low-level symbolic assembly language instructions into machine code. Assembly language is a second generation programming language.
An assembler is a machine code program that converts low-level symbolic assembly language instructions into machine code. Assembly language is a second generation programming language.
Assembly language is a low level language where each statement (mostly) corresponds with one machine instruction. Higher level languages, such as C and FORTRAN, generate multiple machine instructions for each statement.
Basically, computers only understand machine language, which is different and consists of instructions humans can't (easily) read. Also, these instructions and their corresponding appliances differ, which has to do with the processor family. If you compile/interpret code, it eventually becomes machine code, which the CPU then executes.
An assembler is a program that takes basic computer instructions and converts them into a pattern of bits that the computer's processor can use to perform its basic operations. Some people call these instructions assembler language and others use the term assembly language.
