What is a compiler?

Answer Posted / vaibhav

A compiler is a special type of computer program that
translates a human readable text file into a form that the
computer can more easily understand. At its most basic
level, a human will operate very slowly and find the
information contained in the long string of 1s and 0s
incomprehensible. A compiler is a computer program that
bridges this gap.
Some compilers are multistage or multiple pass. A first
pass could take a very natural language and make it closer
to a computer understandable language. A second or even a
third pass could take it to the final stage, the executable
file.
