    Compilers
    Hi
    Please I would like to ask this question - what are the four types of compilers and also I want to know at least 3 types of compilation techniques.
    I will be grateful if any one can help or direct me to a site that can discuss this in detail.

    Thanks

    Wikipedia is good for this sort of thing:

    Compiler - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    If you want a free compiler (easy to use) then go to
    Liberty BASIC - Easy Programming for Windows
    But the compilation techniques...
    An interpreter turn 1 line of code into a binary code wich the computer "runs"
    Since it uses only 1 line at a time, it is good for programs wich are big and have a lot of GOTOs.

    A compiler however, is better for programs that run straight through, and they can create *.exe-s (wich is the major drawback with an interpreter; they can't create *.exe-s.).

    And I think there was something called Pline, but I don't know about that...

    I believe he's asking about different types of compiler... nothing about interpreters... good try though.

    Depends what your coding you got

    C
    Java
    VB
    ASP.NET
    HTML
    VBscript
    ASP 3.0
    ASP.NET
    VB 3.0-6.0
    VB.NET
    C#.NET

    VBScript & VBA
    HTML 3.2+
    XHTML
    XML
    C++
    PHP
    CSS
    SQL Query

    Some you don't need to compline you need a viewer

    Each one is different

    You it depends on what code he uses

    He's not asking about types of code... he's asking about types of compiler..?

    The only question you seem to have answered is "Give me the names of lots of programming languages". He didn't ask that.

    He's asking about the 4 different kinds of compilers that programming environments use, and about the 3 techniques that these compilers use for compilation.

    Right?

    What jahnplay means by

    is that for every programing language there is an different compiler.
    For C++ there is a different compiler
    And so on
