A program that translates from a lower level language to a higher level language is a _____________

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

A decompiler is a program that translates from a low-level language to a higher level one. A low-level language is one that is close to the machine code, such as assembly or binary. A higher level language is one that is more abstract and human-readable, such as C++ or Java. A decompiler can reverse-engineer the source code from an executable file, which can be useful for debugging, analysis, or modification purposes.However, decompilation is not always possible or accurate, as some information may be lost or obfuscated during the compilation process12.Reference:1: What is a compiler?How source code becomes machine code12: How does an interpreter/compiler work2

I've got this one! The answer is definitely A - compiler. A compiler is a program that translates code from a lower-level language to a higher-level language. Easy peasy.

I'm a bit confused by the wording of this question. Is a compiler really the right answer here? I feel like there might be another option that fits the description better. I'll have to re-read it a few times.

Okay, let me break this down. The question is asking about a program that translates from a lower level language to a higher level language. I think the correct answer is C - translator.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about this one. Is it asking about a program that translates from a lower level language to a higher level language, or the other way around? I'll have to think this through carefully.
