Computing

1. Editor

   • Write/edit code, colour code keywords autocomplete done

2. Compiler

   • Converts the source code into machine code at once. So that it can be executed as a stand alone program file.

3. Interpreter

   • Allows you to translate source code line by line when testing your code

4. Debugger

   • Identifies errors in your code and can highlight the location of the error/reason/suggestions on how to fix the error.

5. Operation code

   • What to do to the data

6. Memory address.

   • Where data is read from and then written to.

7. Source code editor.

   • To allow source code to be entered and edited

8. Interpreter

   • Allow source code to be translated into machine code for testing

9. Build Automation Tools

   • To automate tasks such as entering source code with the correct syntax, managing variables etc.

10. Auto Documention

    • Stores lists of variables used, modules , subroutine calls, etc. Which are formatted into a text file for reference by other developers.

11. High level languages.

    • Instructions are written in words.
      • Designed to be understood by humans.
        • Has syntax rules.
          • Portable and can be used on different machine

12. Low level language

    • Assembly code.
      • Instructions are written in mnemonic.
        • Designed to be understood by the computer system.
          • Specific for each machine and it is not portable.
    • Machine code
      • Instructions are written in binary
        • Designed to be understood by the computer system.
          • Specific for each machine and it is not portable.

13. Opcode

    • It is what the code needs to do.

14. Oprand

    • Part of the instruction which supplies. the data address value needed for an operation

15. Mnemonics.

    • Shorten command words
