Programming Languages are a form of comunication between a programmer and the hardware. So the code written in C has to be compiled/transformed into machine code (similar to Assembler) so that the hardware can understand what to do. Compilation leaves your code ready to excecute. Withought it you only have the recipe of what the program does.
