What is a c++ compiler?

Your question is a little puzzling, but I'll give it a try.





A C++ compiler is a compiler for code written in C++ (a modified C). You can do so with VisualStudio from Microsoft or Borland.





C++ came from Bjourne Strousup (sorry for the spelling). He created it with OOP in mind.





If you program, then it's just another language to learn, and compile.

A compiler is a computer program (or set of programs) that translates text written in a computer language (the source language) into another computer language (the target language). The original sequence is usually called the source code and the output called object code. Commonly the output has a form suitable for processing by other programs (e.g., a linker), but it may be a human-readable text file.
Reply:A compiler is a computer program that acts as a medium between a programming language's code [c++ in your case, also called the source code] and the machine's language [binary]. It's basically a translator.
Reply:A program on which you can type in C++ code, test it, run it, and finally change it to an executable program.





Like Microsoft Visual C++, Borland C++ etc
Reply:A compiler is a set of programs that takes your source program, code written in a high level programming language (English-like), and translates it into an object program, written in machine language. In order for your program to run it is then sent to the assembler which translates the machine language into assembly language (Binary 0's and 1's) this creates an executable file which can then run.
Reply:A compiler which understands the C++ coding symantics and produces an executable by converting this C++ code into corresponding assembly.
Reply:A C++ compiler compiles the source code down to pure (K%26amp;R) C code. This gets compiled into Assembler code which gets assembled into machine language.





Kerningham and Ritchie (K%26amp;R) wrote the abosolute definition of the C Language.





C++ was an extension of that language that provided an Object Oriented compiler developed by Bjarne Stroustrup at AT%26amp;T Bell Labs in the early 1980's.





That's where I received my C++ training.
Reply:It's a program to translate the computer language, C++ into something a computer can understand. Think about it like this when writing a computer code using C++.





1. You type it in a form you and others can understand it. ---%26gt; The compiler then translates it into a form a machine, in this case a pc, can understand. If it's written properly, it will give you the ok, if it thinks a computer may have problems understanding it, it will alert you.
Reply:A program that takes your C++ codes and turns it into a running program. I think...
