Q. What is language Translator?

Ans-> Language Translator is a software which converts programming language (source code) to machine language (machine code) and then return object code.

There are two types of language translator-

1. compiler,                  2. Interpreter.

1.compiler -> A compiler converts an entire program return in source code and translate in object code.

A Compiler converts the whole program (source code) to the machine code and then returns object code.

The compiler is faster than the interpreter.

2.Interpreter -> It is the step by step conversion by a compiler, interpreter convert source code to machine code line by line.

Interpreter is slower than a compiler.

I.            It Created by the program.	It is created by the compiler.
II.            Text which document	Binary digit makes of the object code.
III.            Human Readable.	Machine Readable
