   • Translator
     • When you run the code, a translator (such as an interpreter) is used to translate the high level code into low level code.
       • Assembler is used to translate 2nd generation coding programs into machine code (1st generation, e.g. binary)
       • Compilers
         • Compilers are used to translate all the code at once into machine code.
         • 3rd and 4th generation uses this.
       • Interpreter
         • Interpreting is translating single bits of code (that is not 1st generation)
   • Run Time Environment
   • Editor
   • Error diagnostics

3. Generations

   • 1st generation
     • !st generation is machine code (1's and 0's)
   • 2nd Generation - assembly language: uses a simple command for each collection of 1s and Os. Uses an assembler to convert to machine code One assembly code command = One machine code instruction
