Concept Explanation
 

Translator

Translator: Programs which convert a source code(high level language) in any other language, mostly machine code(0's and 1's), are called translator programs.

Need of Translator

The computer only understands machine code. It is unable to understand any low, assembly, or high-level language. There must be a program to convert the source code into object code so that your computer can understand it. This is the job of the language translator. The programmer creates source code and then converts it to machine-readable format (object code)

                                                     

Every high level language and assembly language uses a translator to translate its program Translated programs are directly executable because they are in machine language (i.e. binary language),which is directly understandable by any computer.
