Integrated Development Environment (IDE)

Integrated Development Environment (IDE)

1. Code Languages

   • High Level Code
     • E.g. Python, Java
     • It is easy for humans to read.
   • Low level Code
     • E.g. Assembly line
     • Closer than high level code to binary
   • Machine Code
     • Binary

2. Translators

   • Interpreter
     • Translates line by line.
     • Quite slow, but easier for debugging.
   • Translates high level code to machine code
   • Compiler
     • Translates whole piece at once
     • Faster, but harder to debug
   • Assembler
     • Translates low level code to machine code

3. Common characteristics of IDE

   • Run-time environment
   • Code editor
   • Translators
   • Error diagnostics
   • Auto Documentation
