Integrated Development Environment

1. Translators

   • Translators are used to convert high-level code to machine language
     • Compilers convert all the code in one go. It takes up the least amount of memory, but all the errors are only listed at the end
     • Interpreters translate the code line by line, It takes longer to execute the code, but errors are easier to spot
     • Assemblers are used to convert assembly code to machine code, and vice versa
   • code can be split into 2 types: high-level and low-level
     • high-level code is easy for human users to understand and uses human words
     • low-level code is much harder to understand for human users, but it is easier to control CPU processes

2. debugger

   • identify and check for errors

3. source code editor

   • indents, color code, bracket matching and checking errors

4. run-time environment

   • allows the user to run code in a safe environment

5. purpose of an IDE - to make it easier for a developer to create code and fix errors
