Working of Language Translators

                  The programs written in a high-level language must be translated into machine language by
                  using a translator called an assembler, compiler and interpreter.

                        3 x 3 = 9                                                          Machine Code (01001)

                                           Input                                 Output

                         Digital computer refers to a computer that uses digits (binary numbers 0’s and 1’s) to
                        generate, process, and display data.

                        A microcomputer is a computer with a single microprocessor as its main processing
                        unit.

                         Minicomputers are small general-purpose computers having the capability to serve a
                        number of users simultaneously.
                        Mainframe computers are very large, fast, and powerful computers.

                        Supercomputers are the largest and fastest type of computers, and they can process
                        very large amounts of data quickly.

                         An embedded computer is a special type of microprocessor-based computer that is
                        developed for performing a specific task.
                        A handheld computer can easily be stored in our pockets and used by holding it in our
                        hands.

                        A computer language is the means by which instructions and data are transmitted to
                        the computer.

                        Assemblers, Compilers,  and  Interpreters  are types of software  that  that  converts  a
                        high-level language program into a machine language.
