1
What is the second stage of compilation?
Lexical Analysis
Code Generation
Optimisation
Syntax Analysis
2
What happens during Syntax Analysis?
An error is recorded if the rules of the langauge are broken
The code is checked for logic errors
Redundant instructions are removed
All unnecessary spaces and comments are removed
3
What is a disadvantage of an interpreter?
Source code easier to write but the program will not run with syntax errors
Program can't be run many times without needing to be re-translated
Source code cannot be run on any machine
The entire program must be re-translated if there's an error
4
What is the job of the loader?
Loads appropriate memory addresses into place
Generates machine code
Loads functions for generating random numbers or mathematical operations
Copies programs and linked subroutines into main memory
5
What happens during Lexical Analysis?
The code is checked for logic errors
The compiler generates the machine code
Each phrase is parsed
Keywords are replaced with tokens
6
What is required to translate assembly code?
Interpreter
Assembler
Compiler
Virtual Machine
7
What is an advantage of a compiler?
Produces a list of errors as they are found
Source code can be run on any machine
Translated code easily be read and copied by others
The entire program does not need to be translated again if there's an error
8
Which translates high level language code line by line?
Assembler
Virtual Machine
Compiler
Interpreter
9
The object code produced by a compiler is not hardware specific.
True
False
10
A library is a set of pre-written but not pre-compiled functions.
True
False
