These are required because a computer cannot process a code written in high-level programming language like C, C++, Java, etc. and assembly language. Therefore, it is necessary to convert an HLL or assembly code into machine code for execution. In this article, we will highlight all the key differences between compilers and assemblers. Let's start with some basics of compiler and assembler so that it will ... Read More
