A compiler that translates a high level-language into another high-level language is called a source-to-source translator. What advantages are there to using C as a target language for a compiler?

C would be a good language if you wanted to then go on to improve the efficiency of the code perhaps by editing the translated code. I wouldn't call C a high language :)

What are the differences between a compiler and a translator?

A compiler transforms source code from a source file into low-level machine code, which is able to be executed directly on the CPU. A translator feeds the source code of a script into a different program that determines what the code is doing and executes the instructions.

What is language translator program?

This is usually the first stage in compilation. The source code is read and checked for syntax and usability then passed to the compile stage to be converted to object (or machine) code that the computer can understand.Translator translates program written in one programming language into (equivalent) program written in another language. For example, Java to C# translator would translate Java program into (equivalent) C# program. This is similar to as if you would translate some text in English into Spanish or vice versa.If target language is lower level language like assembly language, machine language, or pseudocode, translator is called compiler. For example, some C++ compiler could compile (translate) program in C++ into machine code.


What is the difference between compilar and interpreter?

compiler is a software translator used in ProgrammingLanguage: C,C++, Java etc ). This used for to translate High level language to Machine independent language. Interpreter is used to translate source code to machine code by line by line.
