A traditional compiler converts the source code to machine code; many recent compilers convert the source code to some intermediate language instead. An interpreter runs the source code directly, which means the source code is basically "interpreted" one line at a time.

What does building the compiler exactly means how does this differs from installing the compiler in perspective of GCC?

Installing a compiler, not just the gcc compiler, is a process where you copy the various executable files to the installation directory, where you copy the various header files to the include directory, where you copy the various library files to the lib directory, in short, where you install the compiler program and configure it so that it can do its work, namely to compile programs. This is no different than installing any other program, such as the game Myst. Building a compiler, on the other hand, is the process where you use a compiler, or other tools, to compile a set of programs that represents the compiler. If this sounds circular, consider this... The game Myst is a program. You install it in order to play it. When you run it, you load and run the executable code that represents Myst. It also has source code, though you probably can not get a copy of that source code. You build Myst by compiling the source code into object code, and then linking an executable from that object code. Building a compiler is no different. It is a program. It has source code. You build it by compiling the source code into object code, and then linking an executable from that object code. When you do this to a compiler, however, you need to distinguish between the compiler that you are building and the compiler that you are using to build the compiler. Sometimes, the compiler is used to compile a new version of itself, in a different directory. Sometimes, a different compiler is used, such as using a simplified version of C to compile a C++ compiler.
