Translators and Interpreters

What is the purpose of a translator in programming?

• To communicate with computers

• To convert high-level language into machine code

• To debug programs during development

• To execute programs without the compiler

Which category does machine code belong to?

• High-level language

• Assembly language

• Low-level language

• Machine-dependent language

What is the role of a program in computer science?

• To translate languages

• To communicate with computers

• To perform various tasks

• To debug programming languages

Why do programmers use high-level programming languages?

• To make use of special hardware

• To write code that performs tasks quickly

• To focus on problems to be solved

• To understand machine code instructions

Which programming language is an example of a high-level language?

• Assembly language

• Python

• Machine code

• Hexadecimal language

What is the advantage of using a compiler?

• Programs can be executed without the compiler

• Programs take up less space in memory

• Programs can be stored ready for use

• Programs are easier and quicker to debug

What is the purpose of an interpreter?

• To translate assembly language into machine code

• To execute high-level language programs one statement at a time

• To turn low-level assembly language into machine code

• To write code that doesn't take up much space in primary memory

Which feature is provided by an IDE?

• Code editor

• Translator

• Debugger

• Error diagnostics

What is the purpose of a code editor in an IDE?

• To simplify the process of writing and editing source code

• To transform source code into machine code

• To help developers debug their programs

• To execute programs without the compiler

What is the benefit of using an IDE?

• It offers a central interface with all the programming tools

• It supports only one programming language

• It is designed for grade 10 students

• It simplifies the process of writing and editing text
